DES MOINES - The Iowa Barnstormers have signed wide receiver MJ Harris to the 2026 roster, Head Coach Andre Coles announced today.

Harris (6-2, 200, Arizona Christian University) joins the Iowa Barnstormers for his first season with the team.

In that one season, Harris recorded 40 catches with over 500 yards and eight touchdowns helping the team win the Conference Championship and was named JUCO All-American and Arizona JUCO MVP. Harris then transferred to Arizona Christian University, competing on both the football team and track team in 2021.
