Details are sketchy, but 1040 just reported RB Andrew Harris sustained an ankle injury at practice today.


Andrew Harris limping off the field at practice. Didn't see what happened. ... Kinda limping. Apparently rolled his ankle.
Sports can be a peculiar thing. When partaking in fiction, like a book or movie, we adopt a "Willing Suspension of Disbelief" for enjoyment's sake. There's a similar force at work in sports: "Willing Suspension of Rationality". If you doubt this, listen to any conversation between rival team fans. You even see it among fans of the same team. Fans argue over who's the better QB or goalie, and selectively cite stats that support their views while ignoring those that don't.

That would be a critical injury if Harris can't go, we would have to see how a Foorde would run then.

You still haven't caught on that the Boyd to Edmonton was a done deal... :)

Anyways, LU says that the Harris incident was just a scare, he will be ready to go for game day.
