Buffalo Bills coach Sean McDermott expressed relief in saying initial tests indicate Damien Harris is trending in a positive direction after a neck injury led to the running back being transported by ambulance to the hospital on Sunday night. "It's my understanding he has full movement," McDermott said following a 14-9 win over the New York Giants. "Fortunate that he is seemingly heading in a good direction, with the reports we are getting.
So I am very thankful to God for that." McDermott also said quarterback Josh Allen was examined for an injury to his throwing shoulder, with tests revealing no damage.
Harris flashed a thumbs up sign with his left hand as he was being loaded into the ambulance after being hurt in the second quarter.
He lay still on his back on the turf for several minutes after being tackled by linebacker Bobby Okereke on a 1-yard gain up the middle to convert a third-and-1 situation.
