“We just want to thank Andy Foster and CSAC, as well as [UFC executive] Jeff Novitzky and the UFC for their help in this situation,” said Harris’ manager Jason House of Iridium Sports. “We knew all along Walt was innocent. We’re very grateful that we were able to clear his name.”

Harris will be eligible to fight again in late April.
