Damien Harris is out of the hospital following a scary on-field scene at Highmark Stadium on Sunday. Multiple reports confirmed Harris was back home Monday after being evaluated for a neck injury and possible concussion.
The update came as a relief after Harris went down on a routine tackle by Giants linebacker Bobby Okereke and required medical personnel to assist. Harris eventually regained full movement.
[I watched the game live last night and could not see what went wrong on the hit. Okereke came in clean with his shoulder and hit Harris in the chest, very good technique, and it should have just been routine. Harris kept fighting for yardage after the hit and Okereke tackled him in what looked like a routine manner. It seems like another freak set of circumstances, just like the one that nearly killed Damar Hamlin last year. Hamlin’s back, and hopefully Harris will return to the team soon. — Ed]
