08:07 AM ET 06.11 | Not even a broken hand will keep Matt Toeaina from participating in the Bears' three-day veteran minicamp, which opens Tuesday. The sixth-year defensive tackle initially thought he suffered a minor sprain when his hand hit the helmet of teammate Jordan Miller during defensive line drills at recent OTAs. Toeaina had his hand re-evaluated by head athletic trainer Chris Hanks after he experienced some swelling days after the initial impact. Toeaina talked about his status while working at teammate Lance Briggs' Nor-Cal All-Star football camp in Sacramento over the weekend. "It's part of the game, and fortunately I didn't need surgery or anything," Toeaina said. "We'll just let time do its thing and let it heal."

So, today starts the Sandusky crap? I hope this doesn't get dragged out for Penn State's sake. It's been a pretty rocky period of time and the quicker this can be resolved, the better it will be for all involved. How long does it take to lock up some sicko anyhow?

Hand injuries can be serious. For one thing, you walk around all day with your fly open because you can't work the zipper.

But from a safety perspective, you can't catch yourself in the zipper either.

On the bright side, it will be harder to get a holding call with a broken hand
