CFL rushing leader, Bombers’ Andrew Harris dodges injury scare, ready for action

The Winnipeg Football Club’s best player sidestepped injury like an oncoming linebacker.

Andrew Harris is set to start in Week 11.

#Bombers running back Andrew Harris has been cleared to play and will be in the lineup Friday against the Edmonton Eskimos. Harris pulled up lame in Tuesday's workout and missed practice today. But all appears fine with No. 33. #wfp

Harris left practice early on Tuesday and was present but did not participate on Wednesday.

The 32-year-old leads the CFL in rushing with 819 yards on 128 carries sporting an impressive 6.4 yards-per-carry average. He’s 152 yards ahead of the next closest player, C.J. Gable has 667 yards on the ground.

Winnipeg’s most dynamic offensive weapon is working towards a third straight CFL rushing title.
