Pittsburgh Steelers outside linebacker Alex Highsmith sustained a groin injury at practice Tuesday, coach Mike Tomlin said. Tomlin did not provide more details on Highsmith while also listing injuries to linebacker Tyler Murray (groin), safety Nate Meadors (hamstring) and defensive end DeMarvin Leal ("had something happen"). Tomlin said it was just that time of year. "It's the dog days of summer. We'll get through it," Tomlin said. "One man's misfortune is another man's opportunity. It's going to create some short lines in some instances, and guys (are) going to really have an opportunity to put their conditioning on display, or work on (their conditioning).
