96 Shelby Harris DE

Harris signed his restricted free agent tender with the Broncos on Tuesday.

Harris received a second-round tender from the Broncos in early March and will earn $3.095 million for 2019. The 27-year-old had 39 tackles (23 solo), 1.5 sacks and one interception in 16 games for Denver last season.

Harris has been told by the Broncos they will use a restricted free-agent tender on him, Nicki Jhabvala of The Athletic reports.

The move will give Harris a salary of $3.095 million for the 2019 season, unless he finds a new contract elsewhere. He is free to sign with any team, but Denver will hold the right to sign him to the same deal for the next five days or they will receive a second-round pick. Last year with Denver, the 2014 draft pick recorded 23 tackles and 1.5 sacks while playing 24.4 defensive snaps per game.

Harris (ankle) did not appear on Saturday's injury report, Zac Stevens of BSNDenver.com reports.

After shedding his name from the injury report, it's reasonable to expect Harris' availability for Monday's contest. With Harris likely to be back in the mix up front, the Broncos will have all their defensive linemen at full health for the divisional showdown.
