On Wednesday, North Dakota Republican Sen. Kevin Cramer announced he suffered a serious injury to his right hand over the weekend which may ultimately result in amputation.

Fox News reports:

Cramer’s communications director, Molly Block, later added on Twitter that the risk of amputation relates to the Senator’s fingers, not his whole hand.

“For those curious – the risk of amputation is for his fingers,” Block wrote, adding that Cramer “is cracking jokes that his future NFL career is over.”
