Eagles quarterback Michael Vick left Sunday's game late in the first quarter after taking a hit following a 23-yard run. Vick got sandwiched between CB DeAngelo Hall and FS Kareem Moore, and left the field gingerly. Vick appeared to be in pain around his collarbone. Kevin Kolb entered the game on the next play as Vick was being looked at on the bench. Source: Philadelphia Sports Daily
On the field it looked to me like a wrist, but I believe you. Either way it sucks for my fantasy squad.
Rib and chest injuries; Vick won't return. This better not be serious. I just traded Aaron Rodgers away so Vick could be my starter.
Commentators said Broken Rib, but I suspect we'll have to wait until a little time has past before we get anything definitive.
Why would you fantasy guys put all your eggs int he Vick basket? Any scramble QB has a good chance to miss time. Trade A-Rod away... nuts.
I, for one, am not dependent on him, I've just been successful with him putting up points. QB was my weak spot as Kolb was the guy I drafted after waiting a long time for one, and when he went down it made my team better. If he sucks now I'll just have to play it week to week.
That means nothing. Xrays are initially negative in most cases of broken ribs. Xrays for thin mobile bones overlying large airfilled cavities are pretty much worthless.
