Give Rex some credit: Harris is extremely underrated. The heart and soul of the New York Jets defense, cornerbacks like Darrelle Revis and Antonio Cromartie or sack artists like Muhammad Wilkerson tend to get the credit over the always steady Harris.

Harris has made a habit out of leading the Jets in tackles. Last year he had 124 total tackles and was one of Pro Football Focus’ top 10 run defenders and quarterback hurriers.
