NFL Player Loses Finger During Game

During Sunday's Cardinals-Saints matchup in New Orleans, Louisiana, the tip of Rashad Johnson's middle finger was severed from his hand. He was attempting to make a tackle on Darren Sproles just before halftime.  Blood was "leaking like a faucet" out of his glove when he confronted a trainer. Johnson said he had some numbness and thought he broke a nail. He didn't end up breaking the nail because the tip of his finger stayed in the bloody glove once it was taken off. Rashad is listed as day-to-day and is expected to play on Sunday against the Buccaneers in Tampa Bay.
