Can't defend VY's behavior at all yesterday. The guy needs to grow up already.

NFLN said torn thumb tendon last night.


I've actually had that SAME injury...painful one. My tendon was ripped completely in half...could not move my thumb. It could not be repaired (one they're torn in half, they're done, re-attachments can be done though. I had to have that joint (one right at the web part of the thumb) fused with 2 screws. Now it's fine, but it was a long healing process. Your other surrounding joints adapt to make up for the loss of mobility in that one. There are 3 joints in your thumb...one that moves your tip, one by the webbing and the one no one thinks about down near your wrist. The middle one is the one involved.

But he's done for the year for sure.
