Detroit Lions cornerback Morice Norris Jr., who was taken off the field via ambulance during a preseason game in Atlanta Friday night, provided a positive update about his condition via social media.

“Amen Amen,” he wrote on his Instagram story Saturday morning. “I’m all good man don’t stress it appreciate all the check ins and love.”

A Lions-blue heart emoji and a bible verse followed.

On the first play of the fourth quarter, Falcons running back Nathan Carter took a handoff and got into the Detroit secondary. As Norris went in for the tackle, Carter’s right knee hit Norris in the head. The second-year player immediately went to the turf and Lions trainers ran onto the field.

After the ambulance carrying Norris left the field, Atlanta quarterback Emory Jones took the snap and stopped the play. The Falcons offense and Lions defense remained on the field, meeting at midfield in a circle, the players bowing their heads and holding hands with each other.

Lions coach Dan Campbell and his Atlanta counterpart, Raheem Morris, agreed to end the game. The Lions won 17-10.

Norris was taken to Grady Memorial Hospital, a Level 1 trauma center in Atlanta, for observation. The team issued a statement after the game that said Norris was in stable condition and “feeling and movement” in all his extremities.

Norris, 24, appeared in two games for the Lions last year after signing as an undrafted free agent. He was in on one play on defense and 32 plays on special teams.

He played two seasons at Fresno State (2022-23) after spending two seasons in junior college. Norris had 116 tackles, two interceptions, two forced fumbles and 17.5 tackles for loss with the Bulldogs.
