Now in Carolina, the 28-year-old will provide rotational depth at defensive end behind starters A'Shawn Robinson (knee) and LaBryan Ray.

Carolina signed Harris off Miami's practice squad to the active roster Tuesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. Harris was unable to make the Dolphins' 53-man roster at the end of training camp, but he opted to stick around on the practice squad. Now in Carolina, the 28-year-old will provide rotational depth at defensive end behind starters A'Shawn Robinson (knee) and LaBryan Ray. Harris appeared in all 17 regular-season games for the Broncos in 2023 and finished with 43 tackles (26 solo), including 1.0 sacks.
The Dolphins signed Harris to a one-year deal Thursday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports. Harris had the best season of his career in 2023, playing 507 defensive snaps while also racking up 43 tackles. Meanwhile, the Dolphins lost the majority of their starting defensive line in the first few days of free agency, so Harris should have a key role with the team in 2024.
Harris will not be tendered by the Broncos as a restricted free agent and will become a free agent, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports. Harris played in all 17 games last season, while starting five, and recorded 43 tackles (26 solo) and a sack. The 27-year-old has spent parts of each of the last four seasons in Denver but appeared in just 14 games from 2019 to 2022. He'll now enter free agency and work to find a new team for the 2024 campaign.
