The Pittsburgh Steelers have officially placed P Cameron Johnston on injured reserve due to a knee injury suffered in Week 1’s win over the Atlanta Falcons. In a corresponding move, the team has officially signed SS Terrell Edmunds off the Jacksonville Jaguars’ practice squad.
Johnston’s injury being season-ending and Edmunds’ signing have previously been reported, though now official by the team.
Johnston suffered the injury late in the fourth quarter of Sunday’s win, awkwardly getting his knee pinned by a Falcons’ rusher. While specifics of the injury haven’t been made public, the injury is obviously severe and will cost him the rest of the season.
