The Buffalo Bills quarterback steered his team to a 34-28 victory over the Arizona Cardinals, but it came at a hefty price.
He injured his hand on one of his touchdown runs after he frighteningly leaped into the air over the Cardinals’ defense.

Following the play, he could be seen looking at it, and would eventually get it wrapped on the sideline, but it did not cause the three-time NFL MVP finalist to miss a snap.
During one of his online chats, Dr. David Chao, the Pro Football Doc, spoke out on social media to give an encouraging and concerning update.
