Back judge Rich Reels injured on Vikings kickoff return
Week 7: Vikings at Steelers
During a breakaway runback by Percy Harvins of the Vikings on a kickoff return, back judge Rich Reels found himself right in the path of the coverage team. While running to cover the third quarter runback, he was caught off guard when the play quickly shifted away from the sideline and was plowed to the turf (video).
Reels left the field on his own feet, and the officiating crew reconfigured to six officials. His condition and his chance of return are unknown.
