During Week 13 against the Baltimore Ravens, Harris forced a fumble on quarterback Lamar Jackson and recovered the football during a narrow 20–17 road loss.[8] The 49ers reached Super Bowl LIV, but lost 31–20 to the Kansas City Chiefs.
Harris signed a one-year contract extension with the 49ers on March 5, 2021.[9]
At the beginning of the 2021 NFL season, it was reported that Harris was making the switch from strong safety to linebacker.[10]
