The AFC North has seemed unusually prone to injuries so far during the course of this training camp and preseason period. The Steelers have certainly dealt with their share, just placing a rookie tackle on injured reserve and having two starters in the trenches dinged against the Saints.
The Cincinnati Bengals, for their part, have also carried more than their share of the load, and they appear to have just lost a core special teams player, and, really, one of the better players in the league at what he does, in running back Cedric Peerman.
