As tough as Nick Sundberg is, he can’t keep snapping with one arm.

According to Mike Garafolo of USA Today, the Redskins are signing longtime Colts long snapper Justin Snow to replace Sundberg, who broke his arm Sunday but kept playing.

It’s unclear how long Sundberg will be out, or whether they’ll put him on injured reserve.

He suffered the injury in the first half but played on, giving him street cred as the baddest long snapper in the league (at least until one of the other midgets grows taller).

According to the Washington Post, the Redskins also worked out long snappers Lonie Paxton, Joe Zelenka and Matt Katula.
