Harris will start at safety opposite Andrew Sendejo with Harrison Smith out with an ankle injury, the Minneapolis Star Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

Its not clear if Harris will get the vast majority of snaps of if the Vikings will use more of a committee approach, but Harris should see a significant increase in playing time.

Harris had four total tackles and played 48-of-61 snaps on defense in Monday's loss to Chicago.

EDGE Analysis

Jayron Kearse got the start at strong safety with Andrew Sendejo out with an ankle injury, but he played just 15 snaps on defense after some early struggles. It looks like Harris could take over the starting job and get the bulk of playing time if Sendejo remains sidelined.

Harris will play in Sunday's game against the Titans.

EDGE Analysis

Harris only appeared in one preseason game due to injury. Now healthy, he is the top backup to FS Harrison Smith.

Harris recorded five tackles on Thursday in what was his only preseason action.

EDGE Analysis

Harris missed the team's first three preseason games due to an undisclosed injury but was in the starting lineup for the final game. He appears in line to be the primary backup at safety along with Michael Griffin.

Harris (undisclosed) returned to practice Wednesday, Matt Vensel of the Star Tribune reports.

EDGE Analysis

Harris hasn't practiced for nearly two weeks with an unspecified injury. Now back in action, he'll resume his competition with Antone Exum for the Vikings' backup free safety job behind starter Harrison Smith.

Harris remained in the starting lineup at safety and had six tackles and defended a pass in Sunday's win over Chicago.

EDGE Analysis

Harris got the start with Harrison Smith out. He could start again next week if Smith remains sidelined.

Harris started at safety and had eight total tackles and defended a pass while playing all 67 snaps on defense in Thursday's loss to Arizona.

EDGE Analysis

Harris was also involved in a mixup in coverage that resulted in an Arizona touchdown as well. The undrafted free agent did well enough in his first playing time of the season that he could start in Week 15 if Harrison Smith or Andrew Sendejo remain sidelined with injuries.
