ENGLEWOOD Shareef Miller Jersey , Colo. (AP) —their contract stalemate with the team bumping the cornerback’s pay in 2019 from about $8 million to $12 million, which is $1 million more than the team’s new cornerback, free agent Kareem Jackson is making.“Done deal!” the team tweeted late Tuesday afternoon.Harris skipped the first two months of the team’s offseason workouts while angling for a pay raise and working out with his personal trainer in Dallas.In a statement, general manager John Elway said, “We have a lot of respect for Chris as a player and for everything he’s meant to our organization. This contract adjustment recognizes his value to our team and the high expectations we have for Chris as a Bronco this season and hopefully for years to come.”However, Harris is set to become an unrestricted free agent after this season.Harris and his agent met with Elway at the NFL scouting combine and came away feeling good about getting a new deal. Those feelings soured when Elway signed two cornerbacks in free agency, Bryce Callahan (three years, $21 million) and Jackson (three years, $33 million).Harris then accused Elway of making it personal by taking a dig at him during his pre-draft news conference when he went out of his way to say that while he would look at Harris’ contract after the draft, he wouldn’t necessarily adjust his deal.Harris Zach Brown Jersey , who turns 30 in June, is entering the final season of the five-year, $42.5 million contract he signed in 2015 just before the market for elite cornerbacks took off.The last remaining member of the “No Fly Zone” secondary that was the backbone of Denver’s Super Bowl 50 triumph, Harris is the only defensive back in the NFL with multiple interceptions in each of the past seven seasons.The Broncos were 6-6 last season and in the playoff race when Harris sustained a hairline fracture in his right leg and missed the final four games, all losses. He returned to play in the Pro Bowl, where he recorded an interception.Harris told The Associated Press recently that he only needs a day to learn new coach Vic Fangio’s defense and that he’s been training tirelessly with his personal trainer in Dallas in preparation for the upcoming season.“I’m ready to roll. I feel great,” Harris said. “I got my body people with me. I stretch every day. My hips are fluid. I’m making sure I’m ready. I’m not going to stop until I get that gold jacket. I’ve got a lot of years left in me. I’m a DB. I play everywhere. I’m getting ready to face Antonio Brown Week 1.”The Broncos open against the Oakland Raiders on Sept. 9.Even with the Broncos changing quarterbacks and coaches again this offseason, the dominant story line in Denver has been Harris’ holding out for a contract adjustment.Von Miller chimed in recently, saying, “When you first get here they tell you … if you do all of the right things in the community and you do all of the right things on the football field Devin Bush Jersey , they’ll take care of you. Chris has definitely done everything and then some.”Champ Bailey, who will be enshrined in the Pro Football Hall of Fame in August, told The AP that while he saw both sides, he felt Harris deserved a hefty pay raise.“I think he’s been in his prime for a few years now. But you have to be realistic. I always try to be objective. I know this guy should get paid. But then I think about Elway’s stance. He’s a businessman. He’s going to do what is best for the Broncos,” Bailey said.“And the way I see it is you’d better get him signed but you’d also better protect yourself for the long run. He is on the wrong side of 30, let’s be real. But, does he deserve to be the highest-paid corner at least on that team? Hell, yeah!” CINCINNATI (AP) — With the Bengals‘ first practice concluded, Ryan Finley walked past Andy Dalton’s locker and headed to a side locker room where the rookies are relegated until the final roster cut. The two quarterbacks will be much closer once the season begins.How close? That’ll be up to Finley.The fourth-round pick from N.C. State is competing with Jeff Driskel for the chance to be the No. 2 quarterback for now. Dalton is under contract for two more seasons, and coach Zac Taylor has declared him the unchallenged starter.Finley started learning the offense this week and went through the first rookie minicamp practice on Friday Diontae Johnson Jersey , getting accustomed to a new setting and a new offense. Taylor liked the way Finley grasped the limited part of the offense he’s been taught and made corrections on the field.“I thought he had good command in the huddle,” Taylor said. “I was pleased. One time we broke the huddle, we weren’t on the same page, and he got them back in there. Day 1, that’s a good start for him, showing those qualities.”Finley was nervous and floated a few throws, but otherwise was pleased with the scaled-back workout.“I hadn’t been in a setting like that in a while,” Finley said. “I could have thrown it better, but I think that’s just the first day.”The Bengals moved up in the fourth round to take Finley, the highest spot they’ve drafted a quarterback since they got Dalton in the second round in 2011. Cincinnati was one of three teams Justin Layne Jersey , along with Detroit and Washington, that brought him in for pre-draft visits.Finley didn’t play football until high school. His father grew up in Minnesota and played hockey, so that was Finley’s main sport as a youth.“It was something we could do together,” Finley said. “When I got a little bit older, I kind of played on the same teams as my dad.”Finley played seven games at Boise State before transferring to N.C. State, where he played three seasons. As a senior, he completed 67.4 percent of his passes for 3,928 yards with 25 touchdowns and 11 interceptions.The Bengals think he’ll be a good complement to Dalton, who has a similar passing style in their West Coast offense. Dalton texted Finley after he was drafted, but they hadn’t yet met as of Friday. Finley has spent time watching video of Dalton to learn the offense.“I’ve heard so many awesome things and just watching him on film these past couple days trying to learn the offense Benny Snell Jr. Jersey , I’m impressed,” Finley said.The main challenge for Finley is grasping a playbook that’s far more complicated in how plays are described and called.“It’s very new for me,” he said. “Very wordy, but it’s fun. It’s what I like.”SCALED BACKTaylor won’t do any 11-on-11 drills during his first rookie minicamp as Bengals head coach, putting more of an emphasis on getting players up to speed on the playbooks while undrafted rookies try to impress during individual drills.“We’re kind of in-between,” Taylor said. “You’re not going to see any 11 on 11, but it’s more than a tryout.”HITTING THE GROUNDThe Bengals practiced on their grass fields adjacent to Paul Brown Stadium, which were damp from an overnight rain. Several players slipped while running routes.“A little slick,” Taylor said. “It’s not ideal when it rains for your first practice.”
