Steelers' Holcomb carted off vs. Titans with 'serious' knee injury

PITTSBURGH -- Steelers linebacker Cole Holcomb was carted off with what coach Mike Tomlin called a "serious" knee injury late in the first quarter of Thursday night's 20-16 win over the Tennessee Titans.

Matched up with wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins, Holcomb was trailing on the play after quarterback Will Levis connected with Hopkins for a big gain. Steelers safety Keanu Neal came in to make the tackle on Hopkins, running into Holcomb's knee after bringing Hopkins down.

Holcomb immediately clutched his left knee on the field as Steelers trainers rushed out to him.
