KC Chiefs: 2019 NFL Draft prospects to watch in National Championship
By John McCarty
DAMIEN HARRIS – RUNNING BACK (ALABAMA)
Much more of a prospect entering college, Damien Harris has been a solid contributor to the Alabama backfield during his four years with the program. Harris is probably faster than his backfield teammate Josh Jacobs and often appears to excel best as a one cut running back. Put the foot in the ground and get up field.
Harris, during his four years, has averaged 6.5 yards a carry and contributed just over 3,400 all purpose yards. Harris has the ability to run away from defenders and has good balance to bounce off and pickup extra yards after contact.
Limited receptions on few opportunities, Harris has recorded 50 career receptions during his four year career at Alabama. Much the same with Jacobs, Harris would be a good fit for the Chiefs as they look to add a back in the draft.
