Lions' Norris hospitalized after scary injury, NFL pre-season game suspended
The Detroit Lions' NFL pre-season game was suspended after Detroit safety Morice Norris suffered a serious injury and was taken from the field at Atlanta's Mercedes-Benz Stadium in an ambulance.
Norris was attempting a tackle on Atlanta's Nathan Carter when he appeared to take an inadvertent knee to the head.
He lay motionless on the ground for several minutes and was tended by medical staff from both teams.
"He's breathing, he's talking. It's good. He's got some movement," Lions coach Dan Campbell said in opening comments on Norris's condition at his post-game news conference. "Now they'll just run more tests."
Players from both teams looked on with concern as Norris was treated on the field, eventually joining hands in a prayer circle.
Both teams agreed to let the remaining 13 minutes on the clock run out. The contest was officially suspended with 6:19 remaining and the Lions leading 17-10.
Campbell said he agreed with Falcons coach Raheem Morris on suspending the game.
"I just told them to pray for him," Campbell said. "At that point we didn't know he was breathing. I told them we're just taking knees."
