Cleveland Browns quarterback Brady Quinn expects to be in the starting lineup on Sunday despite a broken finger on his throwing hand.
Browns coach Romeo Crennel said Quinn complained of hand pain after Wednesday’s practice. X-rays were conducted, and a break in Quinn’s right index finger was discovered. A hand specialist has cleared Quinn to play.
dude his finger is fine. he played well and he will not sit this game. overhyped by media per usual. same situation as romo but cowboys versus browns....well u get the drift.
Wayne (Brooklyn, NY): What's the likelihood of Quinn being effective this week? Is he one helmet boink from the sidelines?
Stephania Bell : Wayne: I like that injury term: boink. You could be right - but he would really have to hit it in just such a way as to knock him out - in other words, not much different than the risk of any QB suffering a hand injury from hitting a helmet in the first place. Certainly if he gets beat up, it will not help - but I don't have a lot of concern that this is going to be an issue for him.
