From what I can read on TM, he's hurt, but not hurt enough to play. He should start, but is subject to replacement if it gets worse.
I don't think Vic has any discipline on him. When you are playing against dirty players and the Refs don't do anything, and then you get double teamed by 2 guys using hands to the face to try and rip off your helmet, you gotta do what you gotta do. Personally, I wish he would have just separated himself and raised hell instead, but I don't begrudge anybody for reacting how he did.
