ENGLEWOOD, Colo. Darcy Tucker Jersey . - Chris Harris Jr.s wild 2014 ride started out with a torn ACL in the playoffs and hit a high note Friday when he signed a five-year contract extension with the Denver Broncos worth $42.5 million.Its been a great year and its been a crazy year, Harris told The Associated Press. It started with me tearing my ACL, a very low point in my career. And now its just amazing how I feel right now.Despite a stellar career at Kansas, Harris wasnt one of the three dozen cornerbacks drafted in 2011, and his signing bonus with the Broncos that year was just $2,000.I remember I bought a PS4 PlayStation with that money and I saved the rest, Harris said.And thats more than he plans to spend right away with his latest signing bonus — $10 million, which is 5,000 times larger than his signing bonus was 3 1/2 years ago.Ive always done a good job of saving the money I did get and really, I got everything I need already, said Harris, whose wife recently gave birth to their firstborn daughter.Harris has made a successful comeback this season, tallying 43 tackles, 18 pass breakups, three interceptions and a sack for the Broncos (10-3), who can wrap up their fourth straight AFC West title with a win Sunday at San Diego (8-5).Its a priority for us to develop and reward our own players, GM John Elway said. Whether on the field or in the community, were proud to have Chris representing the Broncos for years to come.When camp began, Elways dual priority was signing wide receiver Demaryius Thomas and tight end Julius Thomas to contract extensions. But both rejected the teams initial offers and while theyve only seen their stock soar, the Broncos turned their attention to Harris, one of their defensive cornerstones.Harris said negotiations lagged over the last month until Elway got involved and helped close the deal Friday.Oh man, Im just thankful, happy, excited. Really, most of all, relieved, Harris said. Just playing this season with this hanging over my head and still playing at a high level has been pretty hard. So, now I can just focus on playing football. This really just motivates me even more just to go out and play even harder for the coaches and this organization and this city and the fans.In his three-plus years with the Broncos, Harris has picked off 10 passes, scored two touchdowns, forced a fumble and had three fumble recoveries.He quickly rose through Denvers depth chart to earn playing time as a rookie and became a starter in 2012. But after a stellar 2013 season, Harris tore his left ACL in the Broncos divisional playoff against the Chargers.After watching the Super Bowl from the sideline, he flew to Florida for Dr. James Andrews to repair his knee.While he was recuperating, he signed a one-year restricted free agent tender worth $2,187,000 this season.His emergence and versatility playing both the slot and on the outside helped the Broncos decide to bid farewell to star Champ Bailey last winter.When Bailey officially retired last month, he said Harris was a worthy successor.Hes playing better than anybody in this league right now, Bailey said at the time. I just hope they treat him like it around here.On Friday, they did just that.___AP NFL website: www.pro32.ap.org and www.twitter.com/AP_NFL___Follow AP Pro Football Writer Arnie Melendrez Stapleton on Twitter: twitter.com/arniestapleton  Mike Palmateer Jersey .

Siddikur, who shot a bogey-free first round to share the lead with five others, eagled the par-5 first hole before bogeying twice and rebounding with six birdies.J.A. Happ tries to win for the fifth time in six starts tonight when the Toronto Blue Jays continue a three-game series with the Minnesota Twins. Happ bounced back from an ugly loss to Kansas City to win in Detroit on Thursday, as he held the Tigers to three runs and seven hits in 6 1/3 innings to improve to 5-2 to go along with a 4.12 ERA. In two games (1 start) versus the Twins, Happ is 1-0 with a 1.42 ERA. After getting shut out in back-to-back games Toronto seemed to get back on track in Mondays opener, as Kevin Pillar singled home pinch-runner Erik Kratz in the bottom of the ninth inning to lift the Blue Jays to a 5-4 win. The Twins erased a 4-2 deficit in the top of the ninth, but Matt Guerrier (0-1) walked the leadoff batter, Dioner Navarro, who was replaced by Kratz. After Anthony Gose struck out on a failed bunt attempt, Casey Fien took over for Guerrier. Jose Reyes then lined a single to right field -- his third hit of the game -- and Pillar followed with a blooper to right to score Kratz and end the Blue Jays two-game skid. Edwin Encarnacion blasted a three-run homer for AL East-leading Toronto, which was coming off conseccutive 5-0 losses to St. Mitchell Marner Jersey. Louis over the weekend. Danny Santana and Brian ;Dozier clubbed back-to-back homers off Toronto starter R.A. ;Dickey to begin the game, but the knuckleballer settled down to pitch into the sixth inning. "The more aggressive I became, the better result I started having," Dickey said. Kurt Suzuki had three hits in Minnesotas fourth loss in five games. Toronto could stay in the win column on Tuesday, as it goes up against Twins righty Kevin Correia, who is a miserable 2-7 with a 6.11 ERA. Correia couldnt hold a four-run lead on Thursday against Milwaukee and fell for the fourth time in five decisions, as he allowed five runs and 10 hits in five innings. As bad as hes been, though, the Twins dont plan on moving him from the rotation anytime soon. "Kevins one of our starters," Twins manager Ron Gardenhire said. "Hes paid good money to do that, and hes still gonna get paid no matter what, so hes one of our starters. We need him to be more consistent." Correia is 1-3 with a 6.48 ERA in six games (4 starts) against Toronto. Minnesota won two of three when these teams squared off in April. Cheap NFL Jerseys Cheap NFL Jerseys China Cheap Jerseys From China Cheap NFL Jerseys Authentic Wholesale Jerseys China Cheap NFL Jerseys China NFL Cheap Jerseys ' ' '
