If it's a dislocated joint, yes they pop it back in place and the player goes back on the field. If it's a break, then it's not just a simple pop back into place, there's structural damage that can't be fixed by popping it back into place. Still, even with a dislocated finger joint, it's going to be painful and difficult for a QB to throw the ball.

It's broken and he's done for the year.

A break is much better long term than ligament damage. Breaks heal, ligament damage can cause permanent problems with grip strength and/or dexterity. From the looks of the picture, the break appears to be in the middle phalanx, so it is unlikely there is long term damage. Then again, I didn’t do the actual exam so who knows?!
