Briggs Suffers Cut on Hand
Lance Briggs injury caused much commotion when he was at the voluntary workouts, but it wasn’t the type of injury caused by any football move. This injury is a cut suffered on his right palm when he was shaving with a straight razor. He wore a bandage to the workout and was looked at by the team’s trainer Tim Bream. Some thought he may be disciplined for not reporting the injury, but Briggs knew that this isn’t the type of injury the rules cover.
Briggs said, “You don’t have to report if you cut yourself with a razor. If I was cutting a cake with a knife and cut my finger, and I felt like I was in danger, then I would have called a doctor. If it had been something dire, then I would have notified the Bears organization. After I cut my hand, I wrapped it up myself and went to my appearance. I treated it the best I could.”
Briggs has been a top linebacker for the Bears since he entered the league in 2003. Last season, Briggs started every game and finished with 110 tackles, .5 sacks, 10 passes defended and three interceptions. See him this season Chicago Bears tickets from StubHub.com.
