John Elway vowed he and the Denver Broncos would talk about a new contract for star cornerback Chris Harris Jr. sometime after the NFL Draft, and by golly if he hasn’t made good on that promise to this point.
Harris is in the final year of a contract extension he signed back in 2014, which at the time made him one of the highest paid no. 2 cornerbacks in the league.
Now, with a team-friendly cap hit under $8 million and no years beyond 2019 on his deal, Harris wants more money.
It’s completely understandable why he’s held out of team workouts thus far, considering he’s 30 this year, on the last year of his deal, and has been on a bargain basement contract for the last four years.
