What is it with Steelers and their thumbs! I think Ben & Townsend need to invent a little brace to protect the thumb, kind of like the Joe Namath and the knee brace!

Starting cornerback Deshea Townsend has a slight fracture of his right thumb and will not play in the Steelers' preseason game Friday at Philadelphia, coach Bill Cowher said Wednesday.
Cowher, speaking at his weekly news conference from training camp, said he is "optimistic" Townsend will be ready for the season opener Sept. 7 against Miami. Townsend injured the thumb making an interception in practice Tuesday.
I wonder who threw the bullet that broke his thumb? The good thing is he will be ok for the season opener!
