Posted August 28, 201410 yr comment_77473 Shawn Churchill @ShawnChurchill 2m Drew willy just left practice with injured throwing hand. He is in a lot of pain. Being tended to by trainers Bob Irving @BobIrvingCJOB 2m Drew willy hurts his passing hand at the end of practice. Writhing in pain.
August 28, 201410 yr comment_77481 So wait... who's our ACTUAL backup? I think it's Max Hall. Good gawd.
August 28, 201410 yr comment_77482 Backup is either Brohm or Marve. Going to guess Brohm gets the nod if Willy can't go. Willy will play unless it's simply impossible. That's how he's been all year.
August 28, 201410 yr comment_77487 he's banged up that hand a few times already this season. First time was early in the season when he banged it on a helmet or something. They gave him a lotta pain meds and he came back in the 2nd half and found a way to win...said on TSN afterward that he was on a lot of meds. Then a few games later he got it bent back pretty bad, but found a way to fight through. He's been a Ritchie style "Wah-Yah" this season, for sure, but I wonder if too many shots to it finally did him in...
August 28, 201410 yr comment_77489 Ed Tait @WFPEdTait · 22m #Bombers QB Drew Willy had hand looked at by trainer. Now in huddle at end of practice #bn Wish there was more detail to this tweet...hopefully he's alright
August 28, 201410 yr comment_77491 Shawn Churchill @ShawnChurchill 3m Drew Willy doesn't normally show a lot of emotion. That was not the case today. Waiting on injury update
August 28, 201410 yr Author comment_77492 @ccharney86 1m @ShawnChurchill Did he hit it on a helmet on a follow through when throwing? Shawn Churchill @ShawnChurchill 1m @ccharney86 that is correct
August 28, 201410 yr comment_77493 Just find it weird that Willy was hurt in practice when he was no media availability scheduled.
August 28, 201410 yr comment_77494 Penton says Unamba got in tight on him as he was throwing, and got a hand on the ball. Sounds like maybe bent the hand back pretty good...
August 28, 201410 yr comment_77496 Paul Wiecek @PaulWiecek 18s Drew Willy will practice on Friday, no major issue with hand. "Drew's fine" - Bombers HC Mike O'Shea. #bn
August 28, 201410 yr comment_77497 Bob Irving @BobIrvingCJOB · 51s Mike O'Shea says Drew willys right hand injury at the end of practice is not serious and he expects to be ready to practice tomorrow.
August 28, 201410 yr comment_77500 I'm hopeful next season we bring in a veteran qb who can actually play if Willy got hurt & isn't a big ? like Brohm. You need a quality backup in this league as it is an 18 game season.

August 28, 201410 yr comment_77505 Brohm is about as much of a non question mark as you're going to find for a backup QB in the CFL, other than Drew Tate or Kevin Glenn. He's at least got age and experience that the other backups don't have.
