Jackie Bernard Harris (born January 4, 1968) is a former American football tight end in the National Football League. He played for the Green Bay Packers, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Tennessee Titans and the Dallas Cowboys in his twelve-year NFL career. He played college football at the University of Louisiana-Monroe.

Harris attended Dollarway High School. He accepted a scholarship from the University of Louisiana-Monroe, where he played as a wide receiver and tight end. He was a part of the 1987 NCAA Division I-AA championship team.

Harris was selected by the Green Bay Packers in the fourth round (102nd overall) of the 1990 NFL Draft. In 1992, he became a full-time starter until the seventh game of the season and still registered 55 receptions. The next year despite missing 4 games, he tallied 42 receptions, finishing second on the team in receiving behind Sterling Sharpe for the second year in a row.

On June 22, 1994, Harris signed a 4-year, $7.6 million contract with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers as a restricted free agent, becoming the NFL's highest-paid tight end by annual average salary. Although the Packers had the option, they eventually decided not to match the offer.
