Commanders quarterback Carson Wentz suffered a fractured ring finger on his throwing hand during the team’s victory over the Bears on Thursday night, according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport and Mike Garafolo.
Wentz appeared to suffer the injury on his right hand when his arm collided with Bears defender Justin Jones while attempting a pass. He seemed to be in fair amount of discomfort for the rest of the night, but the injury was not believed to be serious as he finished out the game and delivered Washington a 12–7 victory.
Wentz will now head to Los Angeles to see a hand specialist and determine the next step in his recovery. His availability moving forward is considered to be up in the air, according to Rapoport.
