Tyler Linderbaum was one of the players that a lot of Pittsburgh Steelers fans were hoping their team would be drafting in the first round in April, seeing the need to bolster the offensive line as a top priority. They came away, instead, with a quarterback, and the center out of Iowa instead went to their division rivals, the Baltimore Ravens.
The rookie recently suffered a foot injury during practice, though it was not deemed serious. Early yesterday, Mike Garafolo and Ian Rapoport reported that Linderbaum’s injury was specifically to his Lisfranc; however, later in the day, head coach John Harbaugh directly disputed that when asked.
