If it is already dislocated, it actually runs a higher risk of being further injured from landing on it during a sack or a after a run or any number of any other average everyday thing that happens on the football field.

So, yes unless it is 100% healed which depending on the joint and how badly it was dislocated not to mention if there was damage to blood vessels or ligaments or tendons in the finger it is more likely to be damaged again from just a normal tackle.

Right now, there is no official statement on how bad the finger was damaged, so again Fred... if it isn't 100% healed, just being out there on the field increases the injury risk.
