Report: Running back Damien Harris to miss Patriots’ game against Bills, considered week-to-week with thigh injury

The New England Patriots will be missing one half of their two-headed running back attack this week against the Buffalo Bills. According to a report by NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, Damien Harris is not expected to play on Thursday night because of a thigh injury.

Harris is reportedly considered week-to-week due to the ailment, an apparent “indication he’ll miss some time” beyond the game versus Buffalo.

Harris, 25, suffered the injury during last week’s loss to the Minnesota Vikings. Following a carry for no gain, the fourth-year man limped off the field and was later announced as questionable to return.
