Lukas Van Ness played with cast protecting broken thumb on right hand until Week 10 last year. Even after cast was removed, Van Ness said there was “mental block” learning how to use hands again. How much did injury affect him? “Playing defensive line, it’s all with your hands”

Asked Rashan Gary how difficult it would be for an edge rusher playing with a broken thumb. His answer might help explain Lukas Van Ness' challenge last season, and what teammates think of what he did last year: "He’s a dog, man. That just shows you, not being able, because our hands are our everything as a defensive lineman. If you don’t have these, you don’t have nothing. Playing with nine instead of 10 fingers, going against people 330, 350 (pounds), it’s a hard job. That just show you his grit, his hunger for the game and how much he cares about this team and this organization."

This pussy better go hard this year, enough is enough. Need to get after the qb

It would be nice to know how the injuries are effecting players during the season. Love seemed obvious but had no idea about Clark and LVN, Twitter dogging on them for poor performance but it was due to poor health.

Guys have played with a club on a broken hand and played really well. Using the excuse of a broken thumb and forgetting how to use your hands is a joke.

These injury revelations give us all hope for a bounce-back, but at some point they've gotta adapt, right? We can't expect everyone in the lineup to be 100% all the time.

Get some in 2025 stud!

Why is there so much hidden injuries from last season that were just now hearing about.

This has bust all over it. . . 10 weeks is takes for him to forget how to use his hand?

Was he on injury report? Dont remember seeing his name
