Morice Norris’s “Trust Jesus” Insta Story Blows Up As Lions Say He’s Stable After Scary Injury
Man, if you didn’t catch it—Detroit’s preseason game with Atlanta turned into something way heavier than football. Late in the fourth, Lions safety Morice Norris went in for a tackle on Nathan Carter, but Carter’s knee just clocked Norris right in the head. Whole stadium went dead quiet. You could feel everybody holding their breath.
Then, Norris’s Instagram Story pops up everywhere—“Trust Jesus with what’s ahead.” Wild timing, right? Suddenly, that post wasn’t just a random pregame thought. It was all over Twitter, TikTok, you name it. Fans, teammates, even random folks who probably couldn’t pick Norris out of a lineup, all chiming in with prayers and good vibes.
Game? Totally on pause. Both teams circled up midfield, heads bowed. It was honestly more moving than any touchdown celebration. Trainers and medics were out there for what felt like forever—like, 20 minutes—before they finally stretchered Norris off and hustled him to Grady Memorial down in Atlanta.
Officials just called it after that. Detroit was up 17-10, but, seriously, who cared about the score at that point?
Good news, though: the Lions dropped an update saying Norris is stable, awake, and can move everything—hell yes. He’s staying in the hospital overnight for checks, but all signs are pointing up. The team threw out big thank-yous to the Falcons, stadium medics, and Grady’s crew. Classy move.
And that “Trust Jesus” story? Feels like it hit everyone right in the gut. One fan wrote, “God, please watch over this kid…” Another just said, “The only story he has… wow.” Sometimes, football’s bigger than the game. This was one of those nights.
