The news surrounding injured Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker Ryan Shazier has been scarce since he was injured vs. the Cincinnati Bengals on Monday Night Football in Week 13.
Since leaving the game and heading to University of Cincinnati Medical Center the only news fans have received is the following:
- Shazier was transported via helicopter back to Pittsburgh to be treated at UPMC
- After remaining in UPMC, doctors felt it was necessary for Shazier to undergo spinal stabilization surgery.
Other than that, fans have been left in the dark wondering what Shazier’s ultimate prognosis will be, and rightfully so to protect the privacy of Shazier and his loved ones.
