Michael Vick Injury: X-Rays On Thumb Are Negative

Michael Vick did the one thing no NFL team wants to see their quarterback do, especially in the preseason -- get injured. Vick hit his left thumb on the helmet of teammate Jason Kelce after releasing the ball. It looked bad but he's going to be fine as x-rays on his thumb came back negative, the Eagles announced. Looks like just a bruised thumb.

You can view the injury here.

The x-rays tell us that this isn’t a longterm injury, which is great news for Philly. Like most teams, they’d be in big trouble if their starting quarterback went down for an extended period of time.

Vick exited the game after the injury and didn’t return. It’ll be interesting to see how the Eagles handle him in the preseason moving down the line. Does he see less playing time in the final three preseason games? Does this scare not factor in at all? It’d be make me nervous if I were an Eagles fan.
