Another potentially scary injury scene unfolded for the Buffalo Bills in their Week 6 contest on Sunday Night Football against the New York Giants.
Running back Damien Harris was taken off of the turf at Highmark Stadium in an ambulance.
Harris went into a wall of Giants defenders on a third-down, short-yardage carry. Harris appeared to have potentially gone head-to-shoulder with an opposing player, causing a neck injury.
In the best update possible, Harris did provide the crowd with a thumbs up when laying on a board being attended to by medical staff.
The team also provided a similar update. Harris has movement and will be taken to Erie County Medical Center for further testing:

The scene was reminiscent of Buffalo’s extremely scary injury to Damar Hamlin in 2022. Thankfully, both had positive updates in due time relating to both of their injuries.
Bills Wire will provide updates when information is made available.
