It only takes one arm to fist pump.

Thus, injured Ravens running back Justin Forsett didn’t let a little surgically-repaired broken arm stop him from cheering on his team during their 33-27 win on Monday Night Football.

Forsett even went on Periscope before the game to chat with fans in anticipation of the Ravens-Browns showdown – just eight days after his right arm was bent in a nasty direction.

Here’s a link to where you can watch his Periscope. Forsett said it was a crazy week after having surgery on Monday to repair his arm.

“I never had surgery before, never experienced anything like it,” Forsett said. “No one told me that the cast would be so itchy. Even in this sling, I want to scratch it and I can’t scratch right now.”

Forsett predicted a big game from the running backs stepping up to replace him, Javorius Allen and Terrance West, as well as wide receiver Jeremy Butler. He said the Ravens were “in good hands” with quarterback Matt Schaub.

Here are some of his best tweets from the night:
