Andrew Harris' regular-season debut for the Winnipeg Blue Bombers could be on hold.

The running back suffered a hamstring injury during practice Tuesday, and it remains to be seen if it will hold him out of Friday's season opener against the Montreal Alouettes.

That being said, Harris doesn't seem too concerned about the ailment.

"He'll be evaluated right now, he says he's fine," head coach Mike O'Shea said after practice.

Harris was the prized acquisition for the Bombers in free agency and the key piece in a revamped roster for the 2016 season. The 29-year-old spent the past six seasons with the B.C. Lions, running for better than 1,000 yards last year.
