Bama's McElroy dealing with 'pretty painful' foot injury

The Tide quarterback suffered an injury to his right foot on a fourth-quarter sack during the comeback win over Arkansas Saturday.

As reported by the Ledger-Enquirer, it's not an injury that leaves McElroy's status for the game in peril. The QB noted, however, that it is causing discomfort and could linger throughout the week.

"Yeah, this thing's pretty sore," he said. "It actually felt better yesterday as opposed to today, I think, because I had a shot after the game, an anti-inflammatory shot. It was like a 48-hour type of dose. I'll be fine. It's gonna be a little ginger on it the first few days. It's gonna be pretty painful."

The good news is that, during the portion of practice open to the media Monday, McElroy moved without much of a limp.
