A three-stop college cornerback who set Idaho's career pass deflections record, Marcus Harris earned a rookie starting role before a late-season knee injury.
Marcus Harris' college career took him from Oregon State to Idaho to California, and he turned that final stop into a sixth-round selection by the Titans in 2025. He pushed his way into the starting lineup as a rookie before a knee injury ended his first season early.
Path to the league
Harris didn't play as a freshman at Oregon State in 2019, then transferred to Idaho, where from 2021 to 2023 he racked up 154 tackles, six interceptions and a program-record 36 pass deflections, earning second-team All-Big Sky honors in 2022 and first-team recognition in 2023. He finished his college career at California in 2024, adding 46 tackles and two interceptions. The Titans drafted him in the sixth round, 183rd overall, in 2025.
Career highlights
Harris' program-record pass deflection total at Idaho was the headline of his college resume, backed up by back-to-back All-Big Sky honors. That ball-production translated into an immediate role with the Titans as a rookie.
2025 season recap
Harris appeared in 14 games as a rookie, starting five, and recorded 28 tackles, five pass deflections and a forced fumble. His season ended early after a knee injury in Week 16 against the Kansas City Chiefs led to season-ending injured reserve placement on December 27, 2025.
