The New England Patriots ruled out running back Damien Harris for their Week 15 matchup with the Indianapolis Colts as he continues to nurse a hamstring ailment.
Harris suffered the injury late in the 1st half of the snow-filled Week 13 win on MNF, returning for 1 rush for 22 yards in the 2nd half before sitting out for the rest of the contest.
New England is coming off of a bye week, and Harris was a limited participant every day at practice before being downgraded Friday afternoon.
As the Patriots are leading the AFC at 9-4 and have reliable rookie Rhamondre Stevenson ready to carry the load, this is likely a precautionary move to allow the 3rd-year back to get to full health for their divisional game versus the Bills in Week 16.
In a Week 10 start against the Browns, Stevenson rushed 20 times for 100 yards and 2 touchdowns.
