Ronnie Harrison made his first interception as a Cleveland Brown extra special, turning it into the first touchdown of his professional career.
In the Cleveland-Indianapolis game, Harrison picked off Colts QB Philip Rivers early in the third quarter. The former Alabama standout went 47 yards down the sideline to enter the end zone. Harrison’s pick-6 put the Browns up 27-10 after a successful extra point.
Harrison is in his third NFL season. The Jacksonville Jaguars selected Harrison in the third round of the 2018 NFL Draft. Harrison became a Jaguars starter during his rookie season. He was one of the team’s top tacklers in 2019. Jacksonville, in a rebuild, traded Harrison to Cleveland for a fifth-round pick in the 2021 NFL Draft on Sept. 3.

Correction: The article referred to the interception as the first of Harrison’s career. It was his first with the Cleveland Browns after previously playing in Jacksonville.
