Kaboly: Steelers Targeting Week 7 For Alex Highsmith’s Return

Pittsburgh Steelers OLB Alex Highsmith injured his groin right before halftime in Week 3 against the Los Angeles Chargers, and he’s set to miss his second straight game when the Steelers take on the Dallas Cowboys in Week 5. The Steelers didn’t place Highsmith on IR, meaning they expect him to miss less than four games, and Mark Kaboly reported on Twitter that the team is eyeing Week 7 against the New York Jets for his return.

According to source(s), the Steelers are eyeing the Oct. 20 game against the Jets to get Alex Highsmith back from a groin injury he suffered against the Chargers in Week 3.
