Pittsburgh Steelers rookie center Zach Frazier is in a walking boot after suffering an ankle sprain in last Sunday’s win over the Las Vegas Raiders. While it may only be precautionary and it appears Frazier has avoided a serious injury, it’s an important status update and potentially offers a window to when he’ll return to the lineup.
The Trib’s Chris Adamski spotted Frazier in a boot ahead of Thursday’s practice.
Mike Tomlin ruled Frazier out of Week 7’s game against the New York Jets, deeming his injury as “week-to-week.” Per FOX Sports’ Jordan Schultz, Frazier avoided structural damage, and it appears the injury is just a sprain.
