Steelers CB Antwon Blake Leaves Ravens Game With Back Spasms

Pittsburgh Steelers cornerback Antwon Blake has left the game against the Baltimore Ravens with back spasms and he will not return.

With Blake now out of the game, Ross Cockrell will take over outside with Brandon Boykin playing in the slot in the team’s nickel sub package.

The Steelers defense had a miserable first half as quarterback Ryan Mallet drove the Ravens offense down the field quite easily on several drives resulting in 13 points.

Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger completed just 7 of 12 passes for 66 yards and an interception in the first half.
