CB: Chris Harris Jr

When the Broncos signed a young Chris Harris Jr. as an undrafted free agent out of Kansas in 2011, they surely had no idea if this young kid would even make the roster or not.

They had no idea of the diamond in the rough they had just discovered. Broncos Country would learn soon enough, and Harris Jr. would become one of the biggest household names in the Mile High City.

Although he frequently got left out of the conversation for the top corner in the NFL, the chip on his shoulder only made CHJ better. The father of the historic “No Fly Zone” secondary that was crucial in the Super Bowl 50 victory, Chris Harris Jr. along with teammate and good friend Aqib Talib were ranked the best cornerback tandem by PFF in 2016.

In his time with the Broncos, CHJ was one of the most efficient corners in the NFL. He has been thrown at a total of 644 times, and only 10 of those instances resulted in a touchdown.

Although CHJ and Denver did not have the best relationship in his departure, Broncos Country will miss him, and he has definitely earned his place in the Broncos Ring of Fame.
