2024 Fantasy Outlook
A 2023 third-round pick, Harrison recorded 33 tackles, three sacks and a pass defense across 16 appearances as a rookie. The Falcons' shift from a 4-3 to a 3-4 and the addition of Matthew Judon may impact Harrison's pass-rushing opportunities. However, he's still expected to start opposite Grady Jarrett along Atlanta's defensive line in Year 2. Read Past Outlooks
Role cut down in 2024
In 17 games in 2024, Harrison recorded 26 tackles (six solo), including 1.0 sacks, along with two passes defensed.
ANALYSIS
Despite playing one more game, Harrison actually played fewer total defensive snaps in 2024 (263) than he did in his rookie season in 2023 (323). At least part of that difference could be explained by Atlanta's shift from a 4-3 to a 3-4 defensive scheme under new defensive coordinator Jimmy Lake. If Lake retains the position, Harrison could be in line for a similar snap share in 2025.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
A third-round pick out of Ohio State, Harrison will presumably operate as the primary backup behind veteran Calais Campbell, who joined Atlanta this offseason after being released by Baltimore. Harrison should be involved regularly as a rookie, both as a defensive lineman and linebacker, but Atlanta has plenty of front-seven depth and won't need to rush the rookie into a starting role even if he continues to impress during training camp.
