Harris was hurt in the fourth quarter of the Lions' 14-7 loss in Calgary on Saturday. He was in obvious discomfort after being hit and needed assistance to leave the field.

Harris, a Winnipeg native, is the Lions' leading rusher this season with 652 yards and two touchdowns.

The Lions also announced that receiver Bryan Burnham has been placed on the six-game injured list with a lacerated spleen.
