<p><a target="_blank" href="http://blogs.denverpost.com/broncos/2010/08/18/it-appears-abdul-hodge-gave-tebow-first-injury/4573/">According to the Denver Post</a>:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>Tebow was holding his left side as he walked off the practice field Wednesday. The injury does not appear to be serious _ Tebow participated in two practices Tuesday, although he was wearing a flak jacket in the afternoon practice. He did not join the team in the post-workout conditioning sprints.</p>
<p>Tebow was out for the start of practice Wednesday, but about 15 minutes in counseled with head trainer Steve "Greek' Antonopulos, then headed for the locker room.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Over at NFL Fanhouse, they mention that it was that touchdown run that probably led to the injury:</p>
<blockquote>
<p>He took a hard hit in Sunday night's preseason game at Cincinnati, when he ran through two <span class="injectedLink"><a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.cincyjungle.com/">Bengals</a></span> defenders en route to a 7-yard touchdown run on the final play. Tebow may have suffered an injury to his rib cage area when he took a double-barreled hit in the midsection from linebacker <span class="injectedLink"><span>Abdul Hodge</span></span> and safety <span class="injectedLink"><span>Kyries Hebert</span></span>.</p>
</blockquote>
<p>Broncos head coach Josh McDaniels told reporters after practice that he still expects Tebow to play in Saturday's exhibition against the Detroit. <a target="_blank" href="http://denver.sbnation.com/2010/8/18/1630617/tim-tebow-rib-injury-denver-broncos">SB Nation Denver</a> will have more updates as this develops.</p>
