Browns Quarterback Quinn Should Play Vs. Texans Despite Broken Finger

Cleveland, OH (AHN) - Cleveland Browns quarterback Brady Quinn is the probable starter Sunday against Houston, despite having a broken right index finger.

Quinn fractured the tip of his finger during the Browns two-point win over the Buffalo Bills on Monday. He inadvertently hit it on the helmet of another player.

It was his second career start and he passed for 185 yards, though Quinn completed just 14-of-36 passes. He protected the ball well, allowing no interceptions or fumbles.

When the break happened, he didn't even realize it.

Quinn has been given the go-ahead for this Sunday by team doctors, and will be wearing a splint on his finger when not on the field.

As for how it will effect his performance, in a 30 minute open-media segment of practice, Quinn reportedly had no problems throwing.
