ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) – Chris Harris Jr., who signed a $2,000 bonus as an undrafted free agent out of Kansas in 2011, has agreed to a five-year contract extension with the Denver Broncos worth more than $42 million.
Harris has made a successful comeback from ACL surgery this season, tallying 43 tackles, 18 pass breakups, three interceptions and a sack for the Broncos (10-3).
GM John Elway said Friday, ”It’s a priority for us to develop and reward our own players. Whether on the field or in the community, we’re proud to have Chris representing the Broncos for years to come.”
In his three-plus years with the Broncos, Harris has picked off 10 passes, scored two touchdowns, forced a fumble and had three fumble recoveries.
