The Denver Broncos and cornerback Chris Harris Jr. have not yet discussed a new contract, according to NFL Network's James Palmer.

Before last week's draft began, Harris reportedly requested the Broncos either give him a long-term extension or trade him, but neither has happened to date.

Teams across the league are reportedly interested in trading for the 29-year-old Harris but it's unclear what Denver wants to do, Palmer added.

Harris is currently set to enter the final year of his contract with a base salary of $7.8 million for 2019. He reportedly wants a new deal that will pay him at least $15 million annually.

Broncos general manager John Elway previously stated he would talk to Harris following the draft.

Harris has been one of the league's best cornerbacks in recent years and made his fourth career Pro Bowl last season. This offseason, the Broncos signed cornerbacks Kareem Jackson and Bryce Callahan to deals averaging $11 million and $7 million annually, respectively.
