Alyson Footer is tweeting that Brad Mills is giving Manzella the day off after his plunking, but is otherwise fine.
Manzella, on what happened:
"I just saw the ball coming at my head and I just tried to get out of the way. For the first couple of seconds after it happened I had that sick feeling and wasn't sure. I was kind of in shock a little bit and couldn't tell how bad it was. [Assistant athletic trainer] Rex [Jones] got out there and moved it around a little bit and it started wearing off. I was able to squeeze his hand and I knew at that point I was going to be alright."
We didn't come out here to play tiddlywinks, son.
