GREEN BAY, Wis. -- Jimmy Graham has struggled to make much of an impact without any injuries to his hands. Now he's going to try to play with a broken thumb.
The Green Bay Packers tight end will experiment with a variety of splits and protective devises this week, coach Mike McCarthy said Monday, in an effort to play Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings in an almost must-win game for the Packers (4-5-1).
Graham broke his thumb in Thursday's 27-24 loss at Seattle.
The injured occurred in the first half while Graham blocked Seahawks safety Bradley McDougald, and Graham did not return for the second half.
