Haden leaves practice on cart but injury minor

LATROBE, Pa. -- Joe Haden gave the Steelers' fans a scare Wednesday when he suffered an ankle injury that required him to be carted up to the team's locker room during practice.

But the injury is considered minor and Haden is expected to be fine.

The injury apparently happened during a live-team run drill while working against the first-team offense. Haden walked off the field with a slight limp and then hopped on a cart to be transported to the locker room.

The injury occurred as the Steelers were holding their final practice here at Saint Vincent College before their preseason opener Friday night against the Buccaneers at Heinz Field.
