Poor Clay Harbor.
The former tight end for the Eagles came across as a nice guy on this season of ABC's "The Bachelorette" but it never really seemed like he had any real chemistry with the leading lady, Becca K.
He did at least get his moment to shine on the show last night when the cast played a game of football. Here's how People described it:
The real star of the date, of course, is Clay. Poor Clay, who has played professionally in the NFL for 10 years, ends up hurting himself badly. He gets the group date rose at the end of the day, but by the time the cocktail party rolls around the following evening, he finds out he needs surgery and is forced to excuse himself from the competition or risk sacrificing his job, which allows him to support his family.
That being said the show was filmed months ago and after a tough rehab I am finally ready to play some football. I look forward to finding a team and seeing you all on NFL Sunday’s. Thanks for all thoughts and prayers!

You can watch the injury below, via TBL, which happened during a stiff arm.
Harbor took to Twitter after the show aired and said he enjoyed the experience and that he's still looking for love and work.

I have to thank the whole @BacheloretteABC family for an amazing experience in hindsight I don't regret my decision to come on and would gladly give my wrist for a chance at love.β Clay Harbor (@clayharbs82) June 12, 2018
