Harris sustained his thigh injury during the team's Thanksgiving Night loss to the Minnesota Vikings and was spotted on crutches after the game.

For as long as Harris out, we can expect second-year running back Rhamondre Stevenson to get an increased workload. Stevenson has been the Patriots' offensive MVP through the first 12 weeks of the campaign as the team's leading rusher and one of quarterback Mac Jones' favorite targets.
