Scouting Report: Strengths
- Harrison was frequently put in catch-and-run situations, and Harrison shows good vision with the ability to make tacklers miss in space. He’ll also break a tackle or two; he’s extremely competitive and will give effort as a downfield blocker.
- Does not possess top breakaway speed, though he's rarely caught from behind.
- He combines good speed with his size, and he accelerates off the line better than most big receivers.
- He’s very good in contested-catch situations, using his frame effectively to make plays facing the quarterback. He also shows a knack for high-pointing the ball, consistently outmuscling defensive backs.
- Harrison tracks the ball well downfield and consistently runs under long throws.
- His long arms allow him to play bigger than his size, and he has a frame that can carry a little more weight.
- Good quickness off the line. Has size and quickness to get off NFL press.
Scouting Report: Weaknesses
- Physically, Harrison profiles as a guy who should have success facing the quarterback, but he struggles to gear down and make the necessary sharp cuts to create separation underneath.
- While he has the athleticism to be a catch-and-run threat, he never seemed comfortable catching, gathering, and transitioning to a runner.
- Harrison isn’t going to overwhelm opposing defensive backs with speed and athleticism.
