Junior defensive back Christian Harrison has committed to Cincinnati over Indiana this off-season.

Harrison has totaled 31 tackles, 3 tackles for loss, 1 sack and a pass deflection for Tennessee across his career, and most of that production came this past season.

The Atlanta native started at nickel for the Volunteers this past season, playing 295 snaps, according to Pro Football Focus. He recorded 20 tackles and 2.5 tackles for loss, starting in 10 games overall.

He was targeted by many schools including Texas A&M, Ole Miss, Michigan, Indiana and North Carolina but eventually picked the Cincinnati Bearcats.

Christian Harrison is the son of NFL Hall of Famer and NBC analyst Rodney Harrison who spent 14 years in the league with the New England Patriots and San Diego Chargers.

He will have 2 seasons of eligibility remaining after taking a redshirt in 2023.

The Hoosiers also just landed Harrison's former teammate, senior tight end Holden Staes.
