Philadelphia Eagles left tackle Jason Peters has admitted that he was struggling with a finger injury in his side's defeat to the Kansas City Chiefs.

The 28-year-old struggled to protect his side's quarterback Michael Vick against pass rusher Tamba Hali as he was nursing a dislocated finger.

"I had to adjust a little bit because I had to tape up three of my fingers and I couldn't grab," Peters told PhillyMag.com.

"I had to adjust to Tamba in the second half with my hand placement and stuff because I couldn't really grab him with my outside hand.

"I just had to adjust as far as settling down and start using it a little bit better than I did in the first two quarters."

Philadelphia are 1-2 in their season after week three.
