As they always say. "Just a flesh wound."

Looks like it was already in the wheel well when it happened. I can see if they heard a small mini explosion, and saw on the tire page that one tire had dropped off pressure to 0, and all else was fine (engines, pressurization, fuel burn, etc), probably continue to destination.
