Earlier today, Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin said that Chris Wormley’s knee injury would require surgery and he would be out. Now, we know the extent of the injury, as NFL Media’s Ian Rapoport tweeted that Wormley suffered a Torn ACL.
The injury is a brutal blow for Wormley, who is a free agent after the season and would’ve been due for a nice pay raise from the Steelers or another team. When he went down with a non-contact injury and was immediately ruled out, the fear was that he suffered a significant injury, and that appears to be the case.
