ARLINGTON, TX - Arlington Renegades cornerback Ajene Harris has been named the Ortho© Defensive Player of the Week for the second week in a row, as announced today by the United Football League.
Harris delivered another dominant performance in Week 5 against the DC Defenders, continuing to establish himself as one of the league's most disruptive defensive forces. Despite a narrow 37-33 loss, Harris filled the stat sheet with two interceptions, six total tackles, one tackle for loss, and a crucial pass breakup that helped keep the Renegades within reach throughout the game.
Five weeks into the season, Harris leads the UFL in three major defensive categories:
Passes Defended: 11
Interceptions: 3
Forced Fumbles: 2
With his knack for big plays and momentum-shifting impact, Harris has quickly become a cornerstone of the Renegades' defense. His back-to-back Ortho© Defensive Player of the Week honors underscore his rise as one of the top defensive talents in the league.

The Renegades travel to St. Louis to take on the Battlehawks on Friday, May 2 at 8 p.m. ET, live on FOX.
