Steelers 1st Round Pick OT Troy Fautanu Suffers Knee Injury In NFL Debut

Pittsburgh Steelers first round pick OT Troy Fautanu suffered a knee injury in his NFL debut Friday night against the Houston Texans. Though the team didn’t announce an in-game injury and Mike Tomlin didn’t mention Fautanu in his post-game press conference, Tomlin noted the injury after leaving the presser podium.

Per ESPN’s Brooke Pryor, Tomlin (or perhaps Fautanu, it’s unclear who the below tweet refers to) said he was unsure of its severity.

After leaving the presser, Mike Tomlin walked through the training room and saw Troy Fautanu has a knee injury.
