Pro Bowl cornerback Chris Harris Jr, who told the Denver Broncos he wanted to be traded if he didn't receive a new deal, got a raise in an adjusted, one-year contract he agreed to with the team.
The Broncos announced the new deal Tuesday night, and sources confirmed to ESPN that Harris will receive $12.05 million this season after being scheduled to receive $8.9 million. The financial terms were first reported by 9News.
It wasn't the longer-term deal Harris Jr. wanted, but it keeps him in the fold for another year, and he could parlay it into the big payday he is looking for when he becomes a free agent after this season.
