The moment that we heard Michael Vick’s non-throwing hand wasn’t broken, we figured this report was coming.

The Philadelphia Inquirer reports that Michael Vick is “likely” to play Sunday according to two sources.

The swelling in Vick’s right hand needs to go down, but you just don’t see players miss games very often for deep bone bruises on non-throwing hands.

It’s worth noting that Vick has fumbled seven times in only 10 quarters of play this season. This injury won’t help matters there.
