Norris, 24, signed with the Lions as an undrafted free agent in 2024. He appeared in two regular-season games as a rookie. The Lions have shared good news regarding safety Morice Norris, after a serious injury resulted in his departure from Friday night's preseason game by ambulance.

Players from both teams held hands and appeared to pray on the field while the clock ran. The Lions broadcast said Norris "was indeed blinking his eyes," while getting loaded into the ambulance. He was transported to a local hospital for further evaluation, per the Lions.

Detroit Lions defensive back Morice Norris was carted off the field with what appeared to be a neck injury early in the fourth quarter Friday.
