While the Pittsburgh Steelers are desperate to get Ben Roethlisberger back under center on the offensive side of the ball, he is not the only injured player that the team should hope to get back as soon as possible, last on this past Sunday’s results.
Second-year starting defensive end Stephon Tuitt suffered a knee injury late in last week’s victory over the Cardinals, and was unable to practice during the week, which resulted in him missing the first action of his young career.
And it showed, as the Steelers had their second-worst showing against the run of the season, against a less accomplished running back and offensive line than they saw against the Ravens—a Chiefs team that was absent Jamaal Charles.
