Harris can absolutely play LB3 in our base sets over Chenel. But he has a different approach and skill set. The staff appeared to value Leo's more last week.
That's not to say they'll value it more NEXT week.

This is true. They play matchup defense more often than not. So there will be games where Harris has more snaps, and games where he will have less.
But my point stands. If they're putting Chenal out there, they think his skillset is better suited for the matchup. In those cases, there's just not room to get Harris on the field much.
