The Pittsburgh Steelers are in the middle of a tightly contested battle with the Jacksonville Jaguars.
A game both teams need to win, the ending result just got a lot harder for Pittsburgh.
That's because the team's leading tackler, and staple in the secondary, All-Pro safety Minkah Fitzpatrick has been ruled out:
No More Minkah
The Steelers will have their work cut out for them in the rest of this game after Fitzpatrick went down with a noncontact hamstring injury that immediately had him going to the locker room before being ruled out:
It's far too early to speculate but this is obviously a pretty bad scenario for the Steelers and Fitzpatrick. At first, it seemed as if he was clutching lower down his leg, which is even more concerning but the official diagnosis is a hamstring injury, which we will monitor as we gain more information.
