Patriots rule out running back Damien Harris against Raiders

New England Patriots running back Damien Harris will miss his third straight game because of a thigh injury. As was announced by the team on Saturday, the 25-year-old has been downgraded from questionable to out for the upcoming Week 15 game against the Las Vegas Raiders.

Harris originally injured his thigh in the Patriots’ Thanksgiving day loss in Minnesota. His absence ever since has led to even more opportunities for Rhamondre Stevenson and, after he himself suffered an injury on Monday against the Arizona Cardinals, rookies Pierre Strong Jr. and Kevin Harris.
