Harris received a second-round tender from the Vikings on Monday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

EDGE Analysis

Harris logged 46 tackles, six passes defended and three interceptions last season after replacing Andrew Sendejo as the Vikings' starting strong safety in Week 6. Minnesota has elected not to pick up Sendejo's contract option for 2019, indicating that Harris has a clear path to the starting job in 2019.

Harris will serve as Vikings' starting strong safety moving forward following Andrew Sendejo's (groin) placement on injured reserve.

EDGE Analysis

Harris has played well in the secondary since seeing his first defensive snaps against the Cardinals in Week 6, racking up 17 tackles (10 solo) along with three interceptions over the last six games. The fourth-year safety's strong play will likely net him the starting gig for the rest of 2018, providing Harris with an opportunity to prove that he can hold down a safety spot, which could make him a valuable asset on the open market after the season.

Harris had four tackles and two interceptions in Sunday's loss at Chicago. He played all 74 of the defense's snaps.

EDGE Analysis

Harris got a third consecutive start at free safety and has made a strong impression by also grading well in pass coverage. He could stick as a starter the rest of the season.

Harris was announced as the starter at safety in place of the injured Andrew Sendejo (groin) for Sunday's game against the Lions, Andrew Krammer of the Star Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

Harris logged a season high 49 defensive snaps in a Week 8 loss to the Saints, earning the nod as a starter this week over George Iloka and Jayron Kearse.

Harris (hamstring) was a full participant at practice Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Harris was inactive for last Thursday's loss to the Rams with the hamstring injury he sustained Week 3. The 26-year-old should his reserve duties at free safety behind Harrison Smith.

Harris (hamstring) is inactive for Thursday's game against the Rams.

EDGE Analysis

Harris has been largely relegated to special teams thus far, so his absence is unlikely to have a large impact on Minnesota's defense Thursday. Harrison Smith should continue to dominate snaps at the free safety position.

Harris (hamstring) was limited in Wednesday's practice and is questionable for Thursday's game against the Rams, Cameron DaSilva of USA Today reports.

EDGE Analysis

Harris is behind Harrison Smith in the free safety pecking order and has remained strictly in special teams so far. He has yet to record a tackle yet.

Harris (hamstring) was a limited participant during Tuesday's practice.

EDGE Analysis

Harris seemingly tweaked his hamstring during one of his 18 special teams snap Sunday against the Bills. Even if Harris is active in Week 4, starting free safety Harrison Smith figures to dominate playing time again, relegating Harris to special teams' duties.

Harris will sign a one-year tender with the Vikings, Chris Tomasson of the Twin Cities Pioneer Press reports.

EDGE Analysis

Harris was a key depth player for the Vikings in 2017, drawing three starts in place of injured and later suspended Andrew Sendejo. The fourth-year safety also played 57-of-133 defensive snaps in Minnesota's two playoff games last season. He will likely fill a similar role in 2018.

Harris had seven total tackles, forced and recovered a fumble and had a pass defensed in Sunday's win over the Rams.

EDGE Analysis

Harris started at strong safety in place of the injured Andrew Sendejo and made a significant impact. He stripped the ball away from Cooper Kupp as he was about to score a touchdown in a play that likely changed the game. He may return to a more limited role this week if Sendejo can return from groin/hamstring ailments.
