Harrison has been in the NFL since capping a 3-year Alabama career with first-team All-SEC honors in 2017. Harrison helped Alabama win national championships in 2015 and ’17 while with the Crimson Tide.
The Jaguars took Harrison with the No. 93 overall pick in the 2018 NFL Draft. In his second professional season, Harrison was a 14-game starter for the Jaguars.
The Cleveland Browns acquired Harrison via trade on Sept. 3, 2020. He started the majority of his games with the Browns in his first 2 seasons, but logged just 5 starts in 16 appearances for the club in 2022.
Harrison has played in 67 games over his pro career, making 45 starts. He has logged 223 tackles and 5 interceptions.
