Harris made an immediate impact at Alabama, starting all three seasons at middle linebacker. He has finished in the top five on the team in tackles with 221 over his career, adding 10 sacks, three forced fumbles and an interception.

2021 was the most productive season yet for Harris, especially from a pass-rushing standpoint. After a 4.5-sack year in 2020, Harris posted 5.5 sacks this season with two forced fumbles while playing beside Tennessee transfer Henry To’o To’o.

Harris first announced his decision to forego his final year of eligibility at Alabama for the 2022 NFL Draft back in January.

“First, I would like to thank God for blessing me with the opportunity to play at the University of Alabama. I would like to thank my family, friends and coaches for supporting me and believing in me through the adversity we faced. Their support is something I am forever thankful for,” Harris wrote. “I want to especially thank Coach Saban and Coach Golding for coaching me up and instilling values that I will take with me on and off the field. Over the past three years, I have developed amazing relationships and made everlasting memories with my teammates. Being a student-athlete at the University of Alabama has molded me not only as a football player, but as a man able to succeed in whatever I set out to accomplish. After carefully weighing my options with my family, I know I am ready to accomplish my next goal. With that said, I am forgoing my senior year and declaring for the 2022 NFL Draft.”

Harris was a four-star recruit coming out of high school, according to the On3 Consensus, a complete and equally weighted industry-generated average that utilizes all four major recruiting media companies. The 6-foot-2, 244-pound linebacker out of Baton Rouge, LA was the No. 16 linebacker in the 2019 recruiting class, as well as the No. 133-ranked recruit in the 2019 cycle.
