Brandon HarrisUniversity of Miami cornerback Brandon Harris worked out for the Atlanta Falcons and the Denver Broncos today, according to a league source with knowledge of the situation.
The NFL teams also worked out cornerback DeMarcus Van Dyke.
Harris is regarded as a late first-round, early second-round draft target.
He struggled in the Hurricanes' bowl game against Notre Dame wide receiver Michael Floyd, but otherwise had a strong season.
As a sophomore, he ranked second in the nation and led the Atlantic Coast Conference with 15 pass deflections and was named first-team all-conference. He was a Jim Thorpe Award semifinalist with 52 tackles, six tackles for losses and two interceptions.
As a freshman, Harris ran track as he competed in the 60 meters, 400 meters and 4x400-meter relay.
He finished with 132 career tackles, nine tackles for losses, four interceptions, five forced fumbles, two sacks and 28 pass deflections.
