PITTSBURGH (AP) -- Back
judge Richard Reels was injured on Percy Harvin's 88-yard kickoff
return for a touchdown late in the game between the Pittsburgh Steelers
and the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday.


Vikings tight end Jeff Dugan collided with Reels at about the
Pittsburgh 15 yard-line with 6:09 to play and Harvin about to cross the
end zone to cut the Steelers' lead to 20-17.

Reels was attended to by medical personnel for several minutes, but walked off the field under his own power.
