Tyreek Hill vs Chris Harris Jr.

Chris Harris Jr. is not a new face in the AFC West, but he is on another team. Harris, the former Bronco, signed a two-year deal with the division rival Chargers. Harris has been known as one of the best slot corners in the NFL for quite some time now, so his role with Chargers should be almost identical to the Broncos.

Harris should be primarily lined up against the speedy Tyreek Hill. Hill has been one of the biggest offensive weapons since entering the league four years ago. Because of that, Harris is likely to receive help up top to try to contain Hill’s speed.

Hill is such an important weapon in Kansas City’s offense. If Chirs Harris can contain Tyreek on quick and short routes, and if the Chargers safeties can prevent him from getting open deep down the field, then L.A. has the potential to stay competitive with the Chiefs. Fortunately for the Chiefs, Hill was able to get the best of Harris in recent years with Denver.
