Lining up at linebacker Harris has taken reps are linebacker more regularly than safety during the early days of training camp, Matt Barrows of The Athletic reports.

Impact Harris lined up at linebacker during his last appearance for the 49ers, and it's possible the team would rather primarily use him there than at safety. In any case, the 27-year-old's versatility makes him a valuable reserve option for San Francisco.

Serves as reliable backup Harris appeared in all 16 games with the 49ers in 2020, finishing with 37 tackles (27 solo), three pass defenses and two forced fumbles.

Impact Harris continued to serve as a reliable backup for San Francisco this past season, logging 348 defensive snaps while filling in for injured starters on occasion. The team has a difficult decision to make regarding unrestricted free agent Jaquiski Tartt this offseason, and the possibility exists that Harris could finally elevate to starting strong safety to begin 2021. If the 49ers don't re-sign Tartt or sign/draft a replacement, Harris has the physical tools that could lead to strong IDP production, even if his coverage skills are still suspect.
