The Pittsburgh Steelers have no choice but to make adjustments for the remainder of the season in light of the season-ending injury that Stephon Tuitt suffered in their last game. The sixth-year veteran suffered a torn pectoral muscle, and may well have already undergone surgery to repair it. He was placed on the Reserve/Injured List on Tuesday.
A 2014 second-round pick, Tuitt was off to the best start of his career, including three and a half sacks in the first five games. He looked to be on another good game in just a handful of snaps on Sunday before he suffered the injury while putting pressure on Los Angeles Chargers quarterback Philip Rivers.
