Los Angeles Chargers running back Najee Harris sustained a minor eye injury during a Fourth of July fireworks incident in Antioch, California. His agent, Doug Hendrickson, confirmed that the 27-year-old was evaluated by medical professionals and is expected to make a full recovery in time for the upcoming NFL season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The incident occurred shortly after midnight as Harris was celebrating the holiday with friends and family. A firework reportedly malfunctioned, sending debris into the crowd and injuring several people. Among those hurt, were six adults and a 13-year-old boy; one man reportedly lost several fingers and suffered additional injuries. While the situation was serious for some attendees, Harris\u2019s injury was superficial, and he has already begun precautionary treatment as he prepares for training camp under new Chargers head coach Jim Harbaugh. Fire officials are continuing to investigate the cause of the explosion.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
