About chris Harris jr — retired NFL american Football athlete

Chris Harris Jr. brings the credibility of an NFL veteran and Super Bowl 50 champion with a strong football-first brand built on leadership, elite defensive pedigree, and mentor energy. Based in Tulsa and active in training and youth football circles, he offers sponsors a trusted, authentic voice that resonates with sports fans, families, and the next generation of athletes.


Why you should sponsor me for your next influencer campaign?

 From an early age it was clear that Chris Harris Jr. was a natural-born athlete. As a student at Bixby High School, Chris earned all-state honors in both football and basketball, while also earning varsity letters in track. Chris’s passion and talent in football led him to a decorated career at the University of Kansas. While attending college and playing football at KU, Chris had one of the most successful football careers the school had ever seen. Chris served as Team Captain his senior year, led the team to an Orange Bowl victory and earned Defensive Back of the Year honors. By the end of his college career, Chris landed himself at #2 on the Kansas football all-time tackles list. In 2018 Chris was inducted into KU’s Ring of Honor. Although Chris was not selected in the 2011 NFL Draft, he refused to let his dreams die. His innate instincts on the football field combined with his never quit work ethic, eventually earned him a spot with the Denver Broncos. Chris immediately had an impact on the Broncos defense, concluding his rookie season with unparalleled stats he was voted on Denver’s All-Rookie Team, Breakout Player of the Year and Overachiever of the Year. The next few seasons Chris put up elite numbers, aligning him with the best defensive backs in the NFL. In 2014, Chris didn’t allow a single touch down, nicknaming his side of the field the “No Fly Zone.” He was also voted best cornerback in the NFL by the sports statistics agency, Pro Football Focus, which earned him 2015 All Pro. Chris now has since made four Pro Bowl appearances. 2015 was the season that Chris transformed himself and solidified his reputation as one of the top corners in the game, meticulously destroying opposing offenses. Chris battled a severe shoulder injury the entire season but was determined to compete in the playoffs, committing to a rigorous daily rehab program. After a long, grueling 2015 NFL Season, Chris’s hard work paid off when the Broncos were named Super Bowl Champions, a game that was dominated by the “No Fly Zone.” Chris also has many passions off the field. In 2012 he married his college sweetheart Leah, and together they have three beautiful daughters, Aria, Avianna and Aliyah. In 2012 Chris and Leah launched the Chris Harris Jr. Foundation. Inspired by his own life experiences, the foundation seeks out fellow underdogs and helps give them opportunities and resources to rise above obstacles to achieve greatness. The Chris Harris Jr. Foundation puts on numerous annual events, including free football camps, winter clothing drives, back to school events, holiday shopping extravaganzas, turkey drives and more. Chris looks for any way to get involved in helping the community’s youth and has been a face and speaker for the YESS Mentoring program. As a result of his impactful community outreach, Chris was awarded the IBA Citizen Award, an award given to America’s premier athletes who have excelled in their sport and have actively shown their desire to help others. He was also the Broncos 2017 Walter Payton Man of the Year nominee, a prestigious honor recognizing a player’s volunteer and charity work, as well as his excellence on the field. Chris’s down to earth character and genuine passion for helping others has made this Bronco a fan and media favorite. His eloquent speech combined with his captivating personality has garnered Chris various print and broadcast features, including Esquire, ESPN, Billboard, Rachael Ray and The Late Late Show with James Corden to name a few. He has also been featured in campaigns for Red Robin and Baileys Moving Company. With an undeniable football talent and compelling persona, it is no surprise that Chris Harris Jr. will be in the spotlight long after his football career.

OpenSponsorship Releases World Cup Brand Activation Data as FIFA 2026 Kicks Off

OpenSponsorship Releases World Cup Brand Activation Data as FIFA 2026 Kicks Off

Press Release · New York, NY

The world's largest athlete marketing platform reports 277 million views from soccer creators in the last eight weeks, with 1,552 bookable soccer athletes ready for brand activation across 15+ countries. Clients including Walmart and USA Today are already activating ahead of kickoff.

OpenSponsorship, the world's largest athlete marketing platform backed by Serena Williams and David Blitzer, today released proprietary data showing the scale of the creator opportunity around the 2026 FIFA World Cup, which kicks off Thursday, June 11th in North America. With brands including Walmart and USA Today already activating soccer creator campaigns through the platform, OpenSponsorship is positioned as the go-to partner for brands looking to win the biggest sports marketing moment of the decade.

277M
soccer creator views, last 8 weeks
1,552

viral posts over 100K views, just 86 athletes

The platform's soccer roster has generated 277 million views in the last eight weeks alone, with 276 viral posts clearing 100,000 views across just 86 athletes. OpenSponsorship has 1,552 publicly listed and bookable soccer athletes across 15+ countries, including 893 in the United States, alongside athletes from the UK, Mexico, Canada, Spain, Brazil, France, Nigeria, and more.

Brands that can't sign elite players can still reach their audience

With 48 nations competing in the largest World Cup in history, brands face a common challenge: the biggest names are either off limits or out of budget. OpenSponsorship's data shows that mid-tier and creator talent routinely out-reaches their follower counts by 50 to 100x — giving brands access to the same passionate fan audiences at a fraction of the cost of global stars.

“The World Cup is the biggest commercial moment in sports marketing history, and the brands that win it will not be the ones who waited for the tournament to start. Our soccer athletes have already generated 277 million views in the last two months. The audience is engaged, the creators are ready, and the window to activate at the best rates closes when kickoff happens.” — Ishveen Jolly, Founder & CEO, OpenSponsorship
Walmart and USA Today: what World Cup activation actually delivers

OpenSponsorship's recent Walmart Soccer Saturday campaign demonstrates what's possible when brands activate the right soccer creators. The campaign — which featured AA9Skillz, Brittany Wilson, Matty Farias, Sean Garnier, and others — generated the following:

11.6M
total campaign views
4.5%
engagement — ~2x industry benchmark

USA Today is also activating soccer creator campaigns through OpenSponsorship ahead of the World Cup, leveraging the platform's roster of 1,552 bookable soccer athletes to reach highly engaged audiences across the US, Canada, and Mexico — the three host nations for the 2026 tournament.

“When creators genuinely love a sport and an event, it shows in the content. The Walmart campaign worked because the athletes were authentic soccer fans first and brand partners second. That authenticity is exactly what drives the kind of engagement numbers brands cannot get from traditional advertising.” — Ishveen Jolly, Founder & CEO, OpenSponsorship
The World Cup activation window

OpenSponsorship's data shows a clear opportunity curve for World Cup brand activation. Athletes are available now at pre-tournament rates, with demand and pricing expected to rise sharply once the group stage begins June 11th.

  • Kickoff — June 11: the group stage is the viral window, where trending athletes are still affordable before bidding wars begin.
  • The Final — July 19, MetLife Stadium: the highest-profile moment for brands that have already built creator relationships.

Brands that lock in creator partnerships before the tournament begins benefit from lower rates, more authentic content, and deeper athlete relationships that extend beyond the tournament window. OpenSponsorship's white-glove managed service handles sourcing, contracting, content briefing, delivery, and ROI reporting end to end.
