The New England Patriots were back on the practice fields behind Gillette Stadium on Sunday, kicking off the on-field preparation for their upcoming Thursday night game against the Buffalo Bills. Attendance was quite solid, but one notable player was not spotted during the media window to start the session: running back Damien Harris.
Harris, 25, suffered a thigh injury in the third quarter of the Patriots’ contest versus the Minnesota Vikings on Thanksgiving. He left the game with a slight limp following a run for no yards and was first announced as questionable to return before later being ruled out for the remainder of the 33-26 loss.
