New Orleans Saints quarterback Tyler Shough has been playing with two broken bones in his left hand, sources told ESPN.
Shough suffered the injury Saints quarterback earlier this month in New Orleans’ Monday night game against the Atlanta Falcons, according to sources.
The Saints have not publicly confirmed the diagnosis, but the injury has forced Shough to tape together the ring and pinky fingers on his non-throwing hand.
The injury is expected to take weeks to heal, with one source estimating that the injury would last “a couple of months,” but Shough hasn’t missed any playing time and will not. Shough is determined to play through any injury and thinks he can handle this injury to his non-throwing hand. But it has impacted how he does his job.
