Colts president Bill Polian said Harrison's injury is not chronic or career threatening, but rather a "minor sprain" along with a "pretty big blow" to the bursa sac, the Indianapolis Star reports. "[The bursa sac] burst and it got fluid all over the knee. That's it, simple as that. The ligaments are fine," Polian said. "The bursa is healed up. The inflammation hasn't gone down." Polian added the Colts are hopeful Harrison can return this week, but Dec. 2 is a more realistic return date.
Recommendation: This was the most detailed explanation of Harrison's injury as the team has mostly been silent about the details of the problem. It's best to play it safe and expect little out of Harrison the rest of the season, but this information makes it sound more likely he'll be on the field again in December.
