Dulac: Stephon Tuitt Dealing With ‘Undisclosed’ Injury That Could Bother Him ‘For Awhile’

It’s been an incredibly difficult, sad offseason for Pittsburgh Steelers’ star defensive end Stephon Tuitt.

The veteran defensive end’s brother, Richard Bartlett, was tragically killed in a hit-and-run incident in Georgia, keeping Tuitt out of all offseason work for the Steelers. Now, according to Pittsburgh Post-Gazette insider Gerry Dulac, Tuitt is dealing with an “undisclosed” injury that has kept him out of training camp and the preseason, ending any sort of speculation as to what’s going on with Tuitt, who has remained a topic of discussion in recent weeks as the start of the 2021 regular season draws near.
