Missouri running back Ahmad Hardy is set to return to practice this week after being shot in May and missing all games during the current season. The reports say the injury comes from an incident while he was attending a concert, and that he has been recovering since then.
The outlets frame the update similarly: Hardy is a top college running back who has not played since the shooting and is beginning practice again as part of his recovery. ESPN, Yahoo Sports, CBS Sports, and Newsweek all describe the return to practice as a first step after a long absence.
Context around the shooting is also broadly consistent across coverage, with multiple outlets noting the concert setting and that Hardy has not appeared in games since the incident. Differences mainly involve wording and the specificity of timing and designation details about Hardy and his season status.
