Medical staff immediately responded as Norris remained on the turf. He was immobilized on a backboard before being loaded into an ambulance and transported to Grady Memorial Hospital.

Lions head coach Dan Campbell confirmed after the game that Norris was breathing and had movement at the hospital. “I’ll start off with this, obviously, thoughts and prayers are with Mo Norris,” Campbell told reporters.

“We got some positive information on him, that he’s at the hospital… He’s breathing. He’s talking. That’s good. He’s got some movement. And now they’re running more tests.”

Hours later, the Lions issued an update via X stating Norris was in “stable condition” with feeling and movement in all extremities.

The team said he would remain at Grady Memorial overnight for observation and thanked the Falcons organization, the stadium’s EMS team, and hospital staff for their support.

After Norris’s injury, play resumed briefly before both teams gathered near midfield, holding hands in a circle as the game clock was allowed to run down. The game was suspended with just over six minutes remaining and the Lions leading 17-10.

“I don’t think anyone on that sideline wanted to play,” Lions quarterback Kyle Allen said. “We weren’t part of that decision, but you could just look in everyone’s eyes and see it wasn’t worth it.”

Norris, 24, signed with the Lions as an undrafted free agent out of Fresno State in 2023 and appeared in two regular-season games last year.

Yall say a prayer for Lions DB Morice Norris. This is one of the most vicious head injuries I’ve seen in the game.
