After former Texas A&M cornerback Denver Harris was notably missing from the LSU Tigers’ team photo earlier this week, Head Coach Brian Kelly has provided an update on the matter.
After Nola.com LSU Beat writer Wilson Alexander reported that Harris was allegedly involved in a fight during one of the team’s early practices of fall camp this month, Kelly shared that the second-year player is handling some personal matters as of late. If he takes care of everything as expected, the Tigers expect to have him back with the team as early as this weekend.
After serving suspensions with Texas A&M during the 2022 season, Harris appeared in five games while recording 14 tackles and three pass breakups with the Aggies. Following the 2022 season, he transferred to LSU in late December looking for a fresh start with the Tigers while remaining in the SEC.
Brian Kelly: "Denver (Harris) is handling some personal matters and if he takes care of everything, could have him back this weekend." #LSU

Harris was a five-star prospect, the second-ranked player, and the second-ranked cornerback in the 2022 recruiting cycle, according to 247Sports. He is the latest former Aggie to be mentioned in the news cycle for personal conduct incidents, joining wide receiver Cameron Marshall (dismissed from Ole Miss), defensive back Smoke Bouie (dismissed from Georgia), and linebacker Ish Harris (no longer listed on Houston’s roster).
