Report: Vikings use franchise tag on Anthony Harris
by Alex Chippin from on (#50SAB)
The Minnesota Vikings applied the franchise tag to safety Anthony Harris shortly before the 11:59 a.m. ET deadline, reports Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.
Harris is coming off a career season in which he recorded six interceptions and 11 pass breakups. He's spent all five years of his career in Minnesota.
The Harris move completed a busy morning for the Vikings, who extended quarterback Kirk Cousins and fullback C.J. Ham ahead of the legal tampering period.
Minnesota ranked fifth in the NFL in points allowed per game in 2019.
