Arizona Cardinals safety Rashad Johnson lost part of his left middle finger in Sunday’s game against the New Orleans Saints.

On Monday, the fifth-year pro removed the gauze that was placed on the finger following sideline stitching and treatment. That’s when he realized his middle finger is now only as long as his index finger.

After the Cardinals released a picture of Johnson’s wrapped hand Monday, fans tweeted Johnson asking to see the severed finger.

He obliged, using the hashtag #trulyblessed.
