Steelers LB Harrison has back spasms, questionable vs. Pats

Published: Nov 13, 2010 at 02:52 AM

The Pittsburgh Steelers added linebacker James Harrison to their injury report and listed him as questionable with back spasms.

The initial announcement Saturday didn't come from the Steelers, but rather their Sunday night opponents, the New England Patriots. The Steelers later confirmed that Harrison was questionable to play because of back spasms he developed Saturday morning.

Harrison hasn't missed a game this season, and he has 55 tackles and a team-high seven sacks.

The Patriots also reported Saturday night that Steelers safety Will Allen has been downgraded to doubtful because of a concussion.
