Bills RB Damien Harris Exits on Stretcher After Suffering Scary Neck Injury

A frightening scene unfolded during Week 6’s Giants-Bills game on Sunday Night Football after Buffalo running back Damien Harris sustained a neck injury in the second quarter.

With the Bills facing third-and-1 at the 3:32 mark, Harris took his first carry of the game for one yard before being met head-on by Giants linebacker Bobby Okereke, who drove him to the ground. The chilling collision resulted in a stoppage of play as a motionless Harris lay on the turf, prompting the Bills' medical staff to rush to his aid.

After a few moments, Harris was loaded onto a stretcher on the field, where he was seen giving a thumbs-up before being transported away from Highmark Stadium as the crowd applauded in appreciation.
