FOXBORO — The New England Patriots depth chart at running back may temporarily be a bit thinner for the foreseeable future.
After suffering a hamstring injury in the first quarter of the Patriots 29-0 victory over the Detroit Lions in Week 5, running back Damien Harris is expected to miss ‘multiple games,’ as first reported by NFL Network.
While the length of his recovery time cannot be confirmed until Harris undergoes further testing, the current belief is that “he’ll be out for a bit.”
Harris’ final snap of the day came on the last play of the first quarter, which resulted in a run for no-gain on 2nd-and-1.
