Marcell Harris: Tenure with Jets ceases
Harris' (ankle) practice-squad contract with the Jets expired Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Harris opened the regular season on the Jets' active roster and appeared in the first 10 games before being waived Nov. 24. The 28-year-old linebacker then joined the team's practice squad and was elevated for the Week 14 loss to Buffalo. However, he was forced out with an ankle injury that landed him on the practice-squad injured list for the remainder of the 2022 campaign. Harris, who spent the first four seasons in a consistent role with San Francisco, finished this season with a career-low 12 tackles. He'll now likely seek to carve out a special-teams role somewhere heading into the 2023 regular season.

Marcell Harris: Placed on practice squad IR
The Jets placed Harris (ankle) on their practice squad injured reserve Tuesday, Ethan Greenberg of the team's official site reports.
Harris will now miss at least the next four games as a result of Tuesday's transaction, after he departed Sunday's loss to the Bills due to an ankle issue. However, head coach Robert Saleh said Monday that the 28-year-old's injury might be season-ending, per Eric Allen of the Jets' official site. If that's indeed the case, his absence still shouldn't greatly alter New York's defensive game plan given Harris' strictly special-teams role.

Jets' Marcell Harris: Leaves with injury
Harris has exited Sunday's game against the Bills with an ankle injury.
Harris's absence will leave the Jets light on depth at linebacker. However, the 28-year-old primarily contributes on special teams, so his departure shouldn't have a significant impact on the team's defense.

Marcell Harris: Let go Thursday
Harris was waived by the Jets on Thursday, Billy Riccette of Jets Wire reports.
Harris appeared in all 10 games for the Jets this season, mostly contributing on special teams. The 28-year-old had signed with the Jets in the offseason after having spent the first four seasons of his career with the 49ers. His time with New York will end after he recorded 12 tackles (seven solo) in 10 games. He'll now pursue a new opportunity elsewhere.

Jets' Marcell Harris: Headed to New York
Harris is slated to sign with the Jets, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
Harris will link back up with former defensive coordinator Robert Saleh who is in his second season as New York's head coach. The safety-turned-linebacker spent the first three seasons of his career playing primarily in the secondary of Saleh's defense in San Francisco, but moved into a more prominent role at weakside linebacker in 2021, appearing in 15 games with seven starts. The addition of the versatile Harris both bolsters the Jets' defensive depth and provides the team with another special-teams option.

Marcell Harris: Visits with Jets
Harris met with the Jets for a free-agent visit Thursday, Doug Kyed of Pro Football Focus reports.
Harris is looking for a new home for the first time in his career after failing to re-sign with the 49ers before hitting free agency in March. The 2018 sixth-round pick totaled 44 tackles, one sack and one interception across 15 games with seven starts last season while playing primarily at weakside linebacker - a current position of need for the Jets. Harris, who can also play safety, has previously played under Jets head coach Robert Saleh, who served as San Francisco's defensive coordinator from 2017 to 2020, and would be in line for rotational defensive work and special teams snaps if he ends up signing with New York.

49ers' Marcell Harris: Full practice Thursday
Harris was a full participant at Thursday's practice.

49ers' Marcell Harris: Inactive Sunday
Harris (Achilles) is inactive for Sunday's wild-card matchup against the Cowboys, Cam Inman of The San Jose Mercury News reports.
Harris will be sidelined for the second straight week due to the Achilles injury. However, the good news for the 49ers is that fellow weakside linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair (knee) will be available, so they won't have to start their third stringers against the Cowboys' high-powered offense.

49ers' Marcell Harris: Remains limited in practice
Harris (Achilles) was a limited participant in practice Friday and is questionable against the Cowboys on Sunday.
Harris missed the 49ers' win over the Rams in Week 18 that sealed their entry into the wild-card round of the playoffs. The third-year pro's potential absence for Sunday is magnified by fellow weak-side linebacker Azeez Al-Shaair's (knee) questionable status. If neither can play Sunday, Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles will likely be looking at a significant amount of snaps against the Cowboys.
