Saints' Will Harris: Designated to return
Harris (hamstring) was designated to return from injured reserve Wednesday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Harris sustained a hamstring injury in the Saints' Week 5 loss to the Chiefs that has sidelined him since. However, the 28-year-old's practice window opened Wednesday, suggesting that he's nearing a return to the field. Harris now has a chance to suit up for Sunday's matchup against the Falcons, but he must be activated to the Saints' active roster in order play.

Saints' Will Harris: Lands on IR
The Saints placed Harris (hamstring) on injured reserve Saturday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Harris hurt his hamstring last Monday against the Chiefs and didn't practice at all this week. With the injury deemed serious enough to warrant Harris' placement on IR, the safety will need to sit out New Orleans' next four contests. Johnathan Abram played the majority of snaps following Harris' departure from Monday's game and could start Sunday versus Tampa Bay, though Jordan Howden is also a possibility for the role.

Saints' Will Harris: Missing Week 6
Harris (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Buccaneers, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
New Orleans' top strong safety was unable to practice all week after exiting Monday night's loss to the Chiefs with a hamstring issue. With Harris missing his first game of the season, both Jordan Howden and J.T. Gray could see increased snaps alongside Tyrann Mathieu in the Saints' secondary in Week 6.

Saints' Will Harris: Unavailable Wednesday
Harris (hamstring) was estimated to be a non-participant at the Saints' walkthrough Wednesday.
Harris suffered a hamstring injury in Monday's 26-13 loss to Kansas City and he was forced to miss the team's opening session of the week as a result. The safety will have two more chances to return to practice before Sunday's matchup with the Buccaneers. If he's ultimately ruled out, Jordan Howden would likely step into a starting role in the secondary for New Orleans.

Saints' Will Harris: Questionable for Week 3
Harris (shin) was limited in Friday's practice and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Eagles, Katherine Terrell of ESPN.com reports.
Harris sustained the shin injury during practice this week, which caused him to miss Thursday's session. His participation in Friday's practice -- albeit in a limited capacity -- has given him a chance of playing Sunday. If Harris is unable to play, then Jordan Howden would be most likely to start at strong safety alongside free safety Tyrann Mathieu.

Saints' Will Harris: Dealing with shin injury
Harris (shin) did not participate in Thursday's practice session.
Harris was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, but it appears he is now dealing with a shin injury. That puts him in jeopardy of missing Week 3 against the Eagles, and his practice participation Friday will provide clarity on his status for Sunday's game. If Harris is unable to suit up, then Jordan Howden would be the likely candidate to start at strong safety alongside free safety Tyrann Mathieu.

Saints' Will Harris: Picks off Young in blowout win
Harris finished Sunday's 47-10 win over the Panthers with two tackles and one interception.
Harris picked off the first pass attempt from quarterback Bryce Young on a throw intended for Diontae Johnson, and that turnover led to a 57-yard field goal from Blake Grupe four plays later. Even with the Saints leading by a large margin in the second half, Harris finished the game as the only New Orleans defender to play all 55 defensive snaps. The 2019 third-round pick and the Saints' secondary will face a much tougher challenge in Week 2 against the Cowboys.

Saints' Will Harris: Finds new home
Harris agreed to a one-year contract with the Saints on Wednesday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
Harris spent the first five seasons of his career in Detroit after the Lions selected him in the third round of the 2019 NFL Draft. However, he saw his role diminish greatly in 2023, transitioning into more of a special-teams role and rarely taking the field on defense. The move to New Orleans should give him a fresh start and the opportunity to earn a larger role, given his experience at both cornerback and safety.

Lions' Will Harris: Starting Sunday
Harris is expected to start in place of the injured Jerry Jacobs (knee) ahead of Sunday's game against the Ravens, Kyle Meinke of Mlive.com reports.
The 27-year-old safety is expected to make his second start of the year alongside Cameron Sutton at outside corner. Harris is no stranger to starting, as he's started more than half the games he's appeared in since coming into the league in 2019. Throughout his five-year NFL career, Harris has recorded 244 total tackles, 14 pass deflections and two interceptions (including one this season).

Lions' Will Harris: Staying in Detroit
Harris is expected to re-sign with the Lions on a one-year deal, Dave Birkett of the Detroit Free Press reports.
Harris has played his first four NFL seasons with the Lions, and it looks like he'll remain there for at least one more season. The veteran corner will likely compete for nickel duties or a depth role in the secondary, as the team is expected to add Cam Sutton from the Steelers in free agency. Harris played in 15 games last season, recording 57 tackles (44 solo), four passes defended and an interception.
