Four-time Pro Bowl cornerback Chris Harris announced his retirement Tuesday after 12 NFL seasons.
Harris, 34, won a Super Bowl and spent most of his career with the Denver Broncos from 2011-19.
He played for the Los Angeles Chargers (2020-21) and New Orleans Saints (2022) but was out of the NFL in 2023.
“I just waited a year and I stayed in shape, but I realized that everybody was pretty much moving on with the younger players, the younger wave,” Harris told the Denver Gazette. “So I thought it would be great to just call it an end.”
Harris signed with Denver as an undrafted free agent out of Kansas and helped the Broncos win Super Bowl 50 after the 2015 season. He was a first-team All-Pro in 2016 and made the Pro Bowl in 2014, 2015, 2016 and 2018.
He was a member of the NFL’s All-Decade team for the 2010s.
Harris intercepted 22 passes, returning four for touchdowns, and added 621 tackles, 97 passes defensed, seven forced fumbles and six sacks in 172 career games (145 starts).
