Harris could miss rest of season with ruptured spleen

GREEN BAY, Wis. -- Green Bay Packers cornerback Al Harris was undergoing medical tests Monday amid a report he might have ruptured his spleen in Sunday's loss to the Dallas Cowboys.

The National Football Post, a Web site that lists Harris' agent as a contributor, reported that the injury could end Harris' season.


Harris' agent Jack Bechta said the 33-year-old veteran had some internal bleeding and the initial diagnosis is that he ruptured his spleen, according to the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel.


"He would most likely miss the season, it would just depend on the severity," Bechta told the newspaper. "But we don't have any definitive information except there was a rupture. Now we have to get him to a specialist as soon as possible."


Harris left Sunday night's game with 6:51 left in the first quarter after he collided with Packers linebacker A.J. Hawk. Harris returned two plays later.


But Harris had to leave again later in the series after tackling Cowboys running back Marion Barber -- and this time, he didn't return. Harris went to the Packers' locker room in the second quarter with what team officials described as cramping.

Packers coach Mike McCarthy said after the game that Harris had blood in his urine and was not allowed to return by the team's medical staff.

This is a very big loss to the Packers if he cant return.
Injury sounds scary.
