Steelers FB Will Johnson Leaves AFC Wild Card With Hamstring Injury

Pittsburgh Steelers fullback Will Johnson has left the Wild Card game against the Cincinnati Bengals with a hamstring injury and is doubtful to return.

The Steelers lost fullback Roosevelt Nix a few weeks ago to a foot injury so they are now out of true fullbacks. The team did dress three tight ends, however, Saturday night. Pittsburgh has had some success running the football against the Bengals early on with the duo of Fitzgerald Toussaint and Jordan Todman.

The game is scoreless at the end of the first quarter and the rain is falling.
