Former New England Patriots safety Duron Harmon found out about trade during tooth extraction: 'Call me back'

Former New England Patriots safety Duron Harmon found out he was being traded to the Detroit Lions this week in a less than pleasant way.

Harmon, who was drafted by the Patriots in 2013, went to his dentist Wednesday to have a “small procedure" done when he ended up having to have his wisdom tooth removed, he told Lions’ reporter Tori Petry.

“He starts wiggling the tooth, and my phone is vibrating,” Harmon said.
