Jordan Harris was born July 7, 2000, in Haverhill, Massachusetts. He is a defenseman in the NHL.
The Huskies named Harris an alternate captain for the team's 2020–21 season. His performance in the first half of the season won praise from sportswriters who were impressed by his hockey IQ, and he was named the Hockey East Player of the Week on December 14 after scoring two goals and three assists in Northeastern's opening-weekend sweep of Merrimack. With six goals and 19 points for the season, third in the conference, Harris was a semifinalist for the Walter Brown Award, a Hobey Baker Award finalist, and he was named to the Hockey East Second All-Star Team. Harris declined to sign with the Canadiens after his junior year, fueling speculation that he would attempt to become an unrestricted free agent after graduating, but he told reporters that he was more invested in finishing his degree.
The Huskies named Harris their captain for the 2021–22 season. He was named the Hockey East Defender of the Week on November 1 after scoring one goal and recording three assists in a two-game sweep of Maine. In his senior season, Harris scored five goals and 20 points in 38 games. This included five goals and 14 points in 20 conference games, for which Harris was named both a Hockey East First Team All-Star and the conference's Best Defensive Defenseman. He finished his collegiate career with 15 goals and 73 points in 130 games across four seasons.
Shortly after the end of his college hockey career, Harris signed a two-year, entry-level contract with the Canadiens and joined them for the end of their 2021–22 season. He debuted with the team on April 2, 2022, finishing the game +1 with three blocked shots in Montreal's 5–4 shootout win over the Tampa Bay Lightning.
On April 29, 2022, he scored his first NHL goal in a 10-2 win against the Florida Panthers.
