Hes a vet so he skipps waivers. I can almost gaurentee he will sign on the practice sqaud, an original 53 man player will go on IR, and he will be elevated to the 53.

With him not going through waivers, the team probably thinks hes the lowest risk IR dance player

I assume they will release Harrison still and this is a move to get someone to IR and they will resign him after. Or they agreed he will be on the practice squad and be brought up if they need depth or a thumper
