On Monday, John Harbaugh spoke on Malik Harrison’s injuries, saying he was “optimistic” that he’ll be able to make a full recovery.

“I’m optimistic that it’s gonna be OK,” Harbaugh said. “I feel bad for the situation. Happy that he’s OK, very grateful that he’s OK and not hurt worse. Anything can happen, it’s just a tough situation.”
