JACKSONVILLE, Texas (AP) - Backup Miami Dolphins quarterback Josh McCown may want to stick to throwing footballs and stay away from chain saws.
McCown needed six stitches to the index finger on his right hand a couple of weeks ago when he was injured while he and his brother, Luke, were cutting firewood.
Josh McCown told Tyler television station KETK that he was holding the firewood and his brother, a backup quarterback for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, made the mistake of cutting his finger instead of the firewood.
(the floor is now open for jokes!)

Hardly seems like something to joke about. That right hand is how he makes his living.
Get better, Josh, and good luck this season.

Honestly, I'm surprised that either one of them would do something foolish as this during the offseason. Common sense would tell you not to do anything that involves chainsaws and your hands. I'd rank this up there with the Roethlisberger incident based on pure stupidity.

Six stitches doesn't sound like much after a run-in with a chainsaw.

he was really lucky, i mean i had 3 from an arrow in the hand...chain saws do soo much more damage usually...unless he tore all the ligaments in his finger he'll be back in 4 weeks barring any complications.

Are we sure it was a chainsaw and not just a hand saw?

Since LA is an NFL wasteland I have adopted
Should I switch to the Cowboys since I recently became a Pony Dad?
