Report: Jerald Hawkins undergoes surgery, set to head to Injured Reserve

Organized Team Activities (OTAs) have been rough on the Pittsburgh Steelers. Not only have participating players had to answer questions about the absence of absent players like Ben Roethlisberger, Antonio Brown and Le’Veon Bell, but there have been injuries.

Last week, the team saw two players leave practice for different reasons. Jale McGee left with a torn Achilles tendon and Jerald Hawkins left with a torn quadriceps.

According to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN, the team is planning to place Hawkins on injured reserve.
