The San Francisco 49ers have flexed/activated cornerback Tim Harris from the practice squad, which means the second-year player is set to make his NFL debut.
Harris actually broke the news this morning via Twitter.
San Francisco is scheduled to host the Buffalo Bills at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona. Kickoff is set for 5:15 p.m. PT (6:15 p.m. MT).
The 49ers made Harris a sixth-round draft pick out of Virginia in 2019, and he spent his first NFL season on injured reserve with a groin injury. The cornerback has spent this season on the practice squad. He landed on injured reserve with a calf injury on September 16 but was restored to the practice squad on October 7.
This story was updated after the 49ers officially flexed/activated Harris.

Pro Football Focus, however, holds a higher opinion of the young defensive back. In his latest mock draft, the site's lead analyst, Sam Monson, has the San Francisco 49ers selecting Tampa with the No. 31 overall pick.
"T.J. Tampa fits the prototype of a 49ers cornerback," Monson explains. "He has had consecutive seasons of very impressive play and allowed just 240 yards on 49 targets last season. The team doesn't necessarily need him to make an immediate impact, but they could
