Stafford is expected to continue to play despite suffering a badly dislocated middle finger on his throwing hand during Sunday's win over the Bears, NFL.com's Kevin Patra reports.
Stafford finished Sunday's contest with tape on his injured finger and a glove on his throwing hand, but he still managed to lead the Lions to yet another comeback victory. Despite the severity of his finger's dislocation, which has been described as "a jammed knuckle," Stafford didn't miss a single snap Sunday and isn't expected to need surgery, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports. With plans to continue playing in Detroit's final three regular season games, Stafford will likely experiment with different protective options for his finger over the course of this week. Although tending to an injury on his throwing hand could impact his comfort level going forward, fantasy owners should at least be relieved that Stafford isn't expected to miss any action because of his injury.
