Damien Harris "Heading In A Good Direction"

Damien Harris "Heading In A Good Direction"

one year ago

Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott said it was his understanding that running back Damien Harris (neck) has full movement after suffering a neck injury in Sunday night's 14-9 win over the New York Giants and that he is "heading in a good direction." Harris suffered a scary neck injury on his only carry of the Week 6 game and had to be put on a backboard and taken off the field via ambulance. The 26-year-old gave a thumbs up when leaving the field, though, and he reportedly had movement in all of his extremities, which is a great sign. We'll continue to keep a close eye on Harris' progress, but we shouldn't expect him to be available for a Week 7 contest against the New England Patriots. For however long he's sidelined, veteran Latavius Murray will have a bigger role alongside James Cook in Buffalo's backfield.
