Greg McElroy breaks bone in throwing hand

:Posted by Tom Fornelli

Alabama quarterback Greg McElroy is on his way to the NFL, but his journey there may have just gotten a bit more complicated. McElroy played for the South team in Saturday's Senior Bowl and did not leave the game unscathed, breaking a bone in his throwing hand. On the first play of the fourth quarter, McElroy completed a pass to South Alabama's Courtney Smith but hit his hand on a helmet during his follow through.

"I had no feeling the rest of the series," said McElroy. "The ball was kind of sporadic. I couldn't get a grip on the ball. I still can't get a grip on the ball. I think it will be OK."

According to McElroy's father, x-rays showed that a bone near his thumb was cracked. The injury will keep McElroy from being able to throw a ball for about two weeks, but the good news for him is that the NFL combine doesn't start until February 23. The bone should be good enough to allow McElroy to throw by then, but still, this isn't exactly the kind of thing you want happening when preparing yourself for the NFL draft.

He's an intellectual. He could explain what happened to him, but he communicates at such a high level only dogs could hear it.

He does suck.

Serviceable college QB if he has talent around him. Good enough to not lose games if surrounded by talent, no way in hell he can carry a team, nor does he have the physical tools to make it in the NFL.

And then he ran for the touchdown, bare-assed.
