The Pittsburgh Steelers’ starting left guard, Kevin Dotson, is on the Reserve/Injured List with an ankle sprain, and will miss at least the next two games, having already missed one. The man who started in his place on Sunday, J.C. Hassenauer, suffered a pectoral injury in that game, and is unlikely to be available.
Who starts at left guard on Sunday, offensive coordinator Matt Canada more or less told reporters yesterday, will be solidified during today’s practice. Veteran Joe Haeg came in and finished out the game Sunday when Hassenauer went out, but there is also B.J. Finney, who has a dozen starts for the Steelers, including five at that left guard spot.
