Harris, a 36-year-old Winnipeg native, helped the Blue Bombers win Grey Cup titles in 2019 and 2021.
He also earned a CFL championship in 2011 with the B.C. Lions and in 2022 with the Toronto Argonauts.
Harris, who became the CFL's all-time leading ºÃÉ«tv rusher in 2019, registered five 1,000-yard rushing seasons over his 13-year CFL career. He played in 12 games last season for the Argonauts, recording 229 rushing yards on 49 carries with two touchdowns.
