Harlon Barnett is a former professional American football safety who played safety for seven seasons for the Cleveland Browns, New England Patriots, and Minnesota Vikings of the NFL. He is currently an assistant coach at Michigan State University under head coach Mark Dantonio. He is best known as one of two players that Barry Sanders embarrassed in a twisting run in 1994 while Barnett was on the Patriots. Ironically despite this, Barnett's 1994 season saw personal highs as he intercepted three passes and forced two fumbles. In his career, Barnett had four interceptions, all with New England. His lone kickoff return came with Cleveland in 1990 and went for 15 yards.
