Vikings' Tre Roberson: Suffers broken bone in hand

Roberson is dealing with a broken bone in his right hand, Joel Badzinski of the Pioneer Press reports.

Analysis:

Roberson suffered the injury during the Vikings' preseason opener and originally attempted to play through it. However, after the medical staff discovered the break, they held him out of practice last week, which eventually forced him to remain sidelined during the team's second preseason game against the Seahawks. Roberson claims he won't need surgery, but he'll still have to wear "medical gear" for roughly two weeks. It's a tough break for the 23-year-old converted cornerback, who is not a lock to make the final roster.
