Chris Harris' stint with the Denver Broncos is likely coming to an end.

"Nah, I think it's pretty much that door has been closed, so it's just trying to move on to the next situation that's best for me and trying to figure out who's excited to have me in the building and have me a part of the team," the cornerback said Friday on NFL Network when asked about returning to the Broncos in 2020, according to Nicki Jhabvala of The Athletic.

Harris is an impending free agent. Despite adding a solid piece to their secondary in A.J. Bouye through a trade earlier in March, the Broncos reportedly aren't ruling out bringing the veteran back for another season.

Though he doesn't know which colors he'll wear in 2020, the four-time Pro Bowler wants to add another ring to his resume.

"It's time to win again," Harris said during his "NFL Total Access" interview. "I want to get back to a great situation where I have the chance to win another Super Bowl and being able to finish my career on a high note. That's what I want to do."

The 30-year-old has been linked to trades multiple times in recent years. The Detroit Lions reportedly made an offer for Harris last October, but it didn't match the Broncos' asking price.

Harris revealed at the end of the 2019 season that he rejected a three-year, $36-million extension before that year's trade deadline.

He's become one of the NFL's best cornerbacks during his nine seasons with the Broncos, amassing 20 interceptions and 86 passes defended in 139 regular-season games. He's been named a First-Team All-Pro once and helped Denver win Super Bowl 50.

The undrafted rookie received $12.05 million in 2019.
