Jammed fan a hazard?

Simple question. I have a situation whare one of my gpu which is just for extra screens and physx. So very little load. It ended up with a water cooling hose against one fan so it's always jammed but it stays kicked out. Is  there any danger of the fan doing anything dangerous? I doubt it as fans jam all the time from different reasons but I wanna be sure.

Just get a fan grill. Best $0.485 (they typically sell in packs of two) you'll ever spend on your PC.

Aerocool DS are the best fans you've never tried.

Eventually its motor will burn out and it will die. Nothing more than that.
