Leads way with six tackles Harris recorded six tackles in Sunday's Week 3 loss to Baltimore.

Impact Harris failed to log a 100 percent snap rate on defense for the first time this season. However, that did not stop him leading the team with his six tackles. Harris has now racked up 20 stops in three games, though he has no sacks, interceptions or passes defended.

Produces seven tackles Harris made seven tackles (six solo) in Monday's 35-17 loss to the Packers.

Impact Harris won the starting strong safety job in preseason and has posted exactly seven tackles in each of the first two games. The Lions' secondary is in rough shape, but Harris should be a solid IDP contributor as long as he remains the starter.

Wins starting job Harris won the starting safety spot next to Tracy Walker, Kyle Meinke of MLive.com reports.

Impact Not only did Harris beat out Dean Marlowe for the job, but head coach Dan Campbell specified Harris as being one of the most impressive players during training camp. Like most Lions defensive players, the third-year safety is a good bet to improve upon the forgettable numbers he posted in Matt Patricia's historically bad 2020 defense.

Competing for starting role Harris seems to be competing with Dean Marlowe for a starting job at safety, Tim Twentyman of the Lions' official site reports.

Impact With Duron Harmon long gone, Harris and Marlowe reportedly rotated first-team reps at safety next to Tracy Walker during OTAs and minicamp. While Harris has yet to justify the third-round pick that Detroit's old coaching staff spent on him, it seems the Lions' new regime is willing to look past the slow start to his career.

Disappointing second season Harris tallied 35 tackles and one pass breakup over 16 games in 2020.

Impact After seeing at least 67 percent of the snaps in the first two games of the season, Harris never saw more than half the rest of the way despite the rash of injuries that hit Detroit's secondary throughout the year. While his pedigree will likely prompt the Lions' next general manager to give him a chance in training camp this summer, Harris is far from a lock to return to the Lions in 2021 despite technically being under contract through 2022.
