Packers Corner Al Harris Tears ACL, Out For Season

Al Harris is out for the rest of the season thanks to an ACL injury, according to the National Football Post's Brad Biggs:

Veteran cornerback Al Harris has been lost for the season with a torn ACL, according to a league source.

Harris, who turns 35 next month, was injured in the fourth quarter. He was running in coverage with 49ers wide receiver Michael Crabtree when he went down. Harris was taken by cart to the locker room.

The Packers won today in Lambeau, but Harris is, as Biggs writes, a high price to pay for that victory. Harris is the Packers' premier cover corner, playing admirably alongside Charles Woodson in a defense that came into Sunday fourth overall in team defense. Not good -- but if there's a team that can absorb the blow, perhaps it's the Packers.
