Harris played in just 11 games last season due to COVID-related absences. In 2020 he notched 32 tackles, one forced fumble, four tackles for loss and 2.5 sacks while knocking down seven passes.
General manager George Paton made it obvious in a press conference last week that Harris was a priority for the Broncos.
“Shelby is a priority in free agency. We’d love to have Shelby back,” Paton said. “He’s a guy we definitely want back.”
