TuscanyTile2 Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2022/04/21/jets-signing-marcell-harris/ The Jets are adding some depth to their defense. Per Mike Garafolo of NFL Media, New York is signing safety/linebacker Marcell Harris. Harris is familiar with head coach Robert Saleh from their shared time with the 49ers. Harris was a sixth-round pick for San Francisco in the 2018 draft and appeared in 52 games with 20 starts for the franchise over the last four seasons. Harris started his career as a safety, but transitioned to linebacker in 2021. He was a rotational player on defense, playing 31 percent of the unit’s snaps last season. He also was a heavy special teams contributor, playing the majority of snaps on the unit in the last two years. Overall, Harris has recorded 155 career tackles with nine passes defensed, an interception, five forced fumbles, and three fumble recoveries. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slats Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 I get the enthusiasm, but a young ‘tweener/special teamer I never heard of is probably a lot more likely to make the final roster than Vinny Curry. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreenReaper Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 Jets had so many injuries last season that adding a depth piece that's familiar with the system and Saleh makes sense. In 2019 he had 5 PDs and 3FFs. Next year 3 PDs and 2 FFs. So he can make plays. IMO...solid depth piece signing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Green Ghost Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 Not for anything, but didn’t we draft like four versions of this guy last year in rounds 5,6 and 7? 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CTJetsFan Posted April 22, 2022 Share Posted April 22, 2022 More of a SS than a LB. Thought we already had a bunch of these dudes....unless they plan on keeping hm at safety. The plus side is we're probably still drafting an ILB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
