who said it was broken? other than the speculation in this thread. He might have cut a nail too close.

Sheesh. PFT reports him "carted off" (via Person) and has Prisco speculating it could be a head injury.

This is the downside of the Twitter phenomenon :(

Steve Smith left Panthers practice Tuesday with a finger injury and was headed for X-rays.

As we saw with Andre Johnson, these finger injuries to wideouts are often not as bad as they sound. Even when there's a dislocation, guys can play through it without missing much time. We'll know more after the X-ray results are known.

Florio hasn't been kind enough to update it yet. Anyone going solely off of PFT could wind up in a panic.

This is why it's always good to check multiple sources.

He's Steve Smith.

He wil rub some dirt on it, drink a Cactus Cooler and all will be well in the world.....

Something tells me this will be one of those threads where the ratio of substantive information/discussion to smart aleck comments and/or panicky speculation will not be a good one :lol:

...and how does that make this thread any different from 99.9% of the threads on this board? LOL

The facts:

1. Smith was put on a golf cart

2. Rivera said the injury is related to a finger.

3. No specificity as to which finger.

4. No mention of a 'break'

5. No offense to Mr. Prisco, but it was not a head injury.

I will report only what is told to me, and what I see and can confirm. Hope you guys are having a good one. More info to come....the212daily.com

Peace,

How long does it take to X-ray a f**king finger?!

He will be fine.

Hoping it's not broken, but I'd expect him to still be ready Opening Day regardless unless it's some freak thing like Jake's supposedly was that year he went on IR.

CBS is reporting all over that it is a head injury....they are idiots.
