Green Bay Packers coach Mike McCarthy confirmed Wednesday that CB Al Harris suffered a “serious” spleen injury, saying that the injury requires a cautious approach.
McCarthy’s comments were the first confirmation by the Packers that the injury Harris suffered during Sunday night’s loss to the Dallas Cowboys was indeed a spleen injury.
McCarthy said during his press conference Wednesday he is not ruling out Harris for the rest of the season.
“I’m hopeful that he’ll be back,” McCarthy said. “The time frame just hasn’t been established.”
