Sammie Coates broke his index finger badly last season, during Week 5 when the Steelers played the Jets. He decided to skip surgery to repair it, and even though it’s healed, it sure doesn’t look like it.
Sammie Coates’ broken finger is healed, but it doesn’t look like it
If you’re easily nauseated, please look away.


Jeanna Kelley has been covering the Falcons for The Falcoholic since 2011 and the NFL for SB Nation since 2015.
Seriously, this probably needs a warning label.
Here’s a list of things Coates can do with this grotesque-looking finger:
- Flip his hand over and motion for everyone to come here.
- Scratch a very good dog behind the ears.
- Make the letter X in American Sign Language.
- Give me nightmares.
But can Coates catch balls with that finger? We’ll find out next season.
