Al Harris’ wife, Shyla Harris, has four children with the former NFL star. They have been married for 16 years, but Al has never revealed anything about his private life. Harris was married before he met Shyla, and in an interview, Shyla recalled having a stepson with the former Green Bay Packers star. The former cornerback was a sixth-round pick in 1997. He played for the Philadelphia Eagles before joining the Packers in 2003. He played eight seasons with the Packers before moving on to the Dolphins and St. Louis. Louis Rams for one season each.
Harris began his coaching career with the Dolphins in 2012, and previously coached the Kansas City Chiefs for six seasons. In 2020, he became the defensive backs coach of the Dallas Cowboys. However, with Dan Quinn leaving the Cowboys to become the Commanders head coach, the defensive coordinator position remains open. Many people feel that no one could be a better match than Al.
Meet Al Harris’s wife, Shyla Harris
Shyla Harris, wife of Al Harris, did not stand out. The couple is not active on social media, but it was previously reported that they were married in March 2007. In 2009, Shyla and other spouses of the Green Bay Packers were interviewed. The interview is no longer online, but a gossip website user previously saved and shared the item.
According to the interview, Shyla is from Pompano Beach, Florida. The reporter asked Shyla how Green Bay compares to her hometown, and she said she likes Green Bay. She described the residents of Green Bay as friendly and hospitable. Shyla said Green Bay is a very family-oriented community and their support for the team is evident. When asked how she met Al, Shyla said her husband and an older cousin attended the same high school and played football. One night, she was out with her cousin when Al saw her.
Al didn’t know they were cousins, so he believed Shyla was dating her cousin. But they immediately corrected him, and Shyla’s cousin introduced her to the player. The rest was history. Shyla was studying sociology at the time and informed the interviewer that she planned to pursue a degree in nursing after graduation. When asked about her favorite Packers memory, Shyla mentioned her husband. It was when Al returned an interception to win the 2003 Wildcard playoff game between the Packers and Seattle.
Al and Shyla’s children
Al and his wife Shyla have four children: Lyla, Al Junior, Gavin and Gage. In the same interview, Shyla claimed that Al Jr is her stepson. Al Jr tried to follow in his father’s footsteps but never made it to the NFL. He played defensive back at St. Thomas Aquinas before attending the University of South Carolina.
Al Jr. played 12 games as a freshman cornerback, four of which he started. He made 21 tackles and broke up three passes. Harris Jr. he made 25 tackles in 10 games during his sophomore year. He transferred to Jacksonville State University his freshman year, although nothing is known about his time there. Al Harris Jr was believed to have signed with the Green Bay Blizzard of the minor league in 2021, however, he is no longer on the roster. The remaining three children of Al and Shyla have remained out of the limelight and nothing is known about them.
