Harris was elevated from the practice squad Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
This is Harris' second practice-squad call-up, meaning the team will need to make a decision on the wide receiver's status for the active roster next week. For now, expect Harris to simply provide some depth to a pass-catching unit that sees multiple players banged up entering Sunday's pivotal divisional contest.

Harris played two snaps on offense but didn't have a target in Sunday's loss to the Rams.
EDGE Analysis
Ashton Dulin and Michael Strachan saw increased playing time with Parris Campbell out with an abdomen injury. Harris could see more snaps this week if Campbell remains out, but he'll still likely be distant fifth option among receivers.

WR FA
Harris was elevated from the practice squad Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Harris was a part-time player for the Colts last season, catching 10 passes for 79 yards, and he'll likely be asked to do the same depending on the status of questionable wideouts Michael Pittman (ankle) and Parris Campbell (abdomen).

Harris was waived by the Colts on Tuesday, AJ Mast of HearaldBulletin.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Harris suited up for seven games with Indy during his rookie campaign in 2020. He piled up 10 receptions for 79 yards in the process. He was again competing for a depth receiver role with the team. If he ends up clearing waivers, he would be a likely candidate to land on the Colts' practice squad.

Harris (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Jaguars.
EDGE Analysis
Harris didn't have any issues fielding a full practice workload throughout the week, but he's been passed up for a spot in the active lineup for the regular-season finale. Ashton Dulin and Dezmon Patmon get the bump ahead of Harris for Week 17, as Indianapolis prepares for a matchup against Jacksonville's No. 27 pass defense.

Harris rushed once for a loss of three yards in Sunday's 26-20 win over the Texans.
EDGE Analysis
Head coach Frank Reich occasionally scripts a play or two for Harris in each game, typically of the jet sweep variety. It didn't work against the Texans, as Justin Reid stuffed him behind the line of scrimmage. The undrafted rookie out of Southern Mississippi isn't relevant in season-long fantasy formats, but he can be an intriguing DFS tournament play in the right setting.

Harris caught his only target for one yard and had one carry for two yards during Sunday's 45-26 loss to the Titans.
EDGE Analysis
The 22-year-old played 11 offensive snaps and continues to have a minor role in the Indianapolis offense. Harris is unlikely to become much more involved with the rest of the team's wideouts and tight ends currently healthy.

Harris had two carries for 19 yards and one reception for one yard on his only target in Sunday's win over Green Bay.
EDGE Analysis
Harris played on 16 of the offense's 84 snaps, which is a surprise since Indy's receiving corps was at full strength with T.Y. Hilton, Jack Doyle and Mo Alie-Cox healthy. He'll likely continue to have a minor role in the offense, but he's worth keeping tabs on in deep formats or if injuries strike again in the receiving corps.

Harris had one reception for 21 yards on his lone target in Thursday's win over Tennessee.
EDGE Analysis
Harris was targeted four times in the passing game in the Week 9 loss to Baltimore and also had two carries for 28 yards on jet sweeps. He played on just nine of the offense's 70 snaps, compared to 16 snaps in Week 9 as the return of T.Y. Hilton from a groin injury likely limited his playing time. With the emergene of Michael Pittman and Hilton back to full strength, Harris will likely have a limited role in a Week 11 matchup against Green Bay.

Harris could see a few specially designed plays from the backfield Week 10 against the Titans, Jim Ayello of the Indianapolis Star reports.
EDGE Analysis
Harris was brought on to the active roster primarily to be used as a wide receiver, and he was targeted four times in the passing game in the Week 9 loss to Baltimore. What's unique is that he also carried the ball twice for 28 yards on jet sweeps, and this isn't a pattern likely to stop as long as he's active. In fact, coach Frank Reich said Monday that he intends to give Harris a few plays that would have typically gone to Nyheim Hines. This doesn't necessarily indicate a major uptick from last week's 16 offensive snaps is on the horizon, but when he's on the field, Reich hopes to use the undrafted rookie in a manner that keeps defenses guessing.
