Will Harris - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Limited by injuries in 2025 Harris recorded 38 total tackles (22 solo), including 1.0 sacks, while also adding three passes defensed and a forced fumble over nine games during the 2025 regular season.

Impact Harris joined the Commanders as a free agent ahead of the 2025 campaign, inking a two-year, $8 million contract. The safety suffered a fractured fibula in Week 3 against the Raiders, ultimately missing eight games as a result. Harris was still able to register at least 38 takedowns for the fifth time in his seven-year career, while his sack of J.J. McCarthy in Week 14 was his first full sack since 2019. The 30-year-old appears to be on track to operate as one of the team's starting safeties again in 2026.

Impact A stint on injured reserve requires a player to miss at least the next four games. However, Harris fractured his fibula during the Commanders' 41-24 win over the Raiders on Sunday, and that injury is significant enough for him that he may not return until late in the regular season, if at all. Following injuries to Harris and Percy Butler (hip), the Commanders fortified their depth at safety by signing 2019 first-rounder Darnell Savage to a one-year contract Monday.
