The Pittsburgh Steelers left Lucas Oil Stadium on Sunday with a sour taste in their mouth's following a botched attempt at a comeback against the Indianapolis Colts.
Well, that taste didn't get much better on Monday morning, as yet another member of the offensive line is feared to be out for the year:
More Atrittion Up Front
The right side of the line will look entirely different against the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday compared to what the Steelers envisioned when they set out at the start of the regular season.
A knee injury that placed rookie Troy Fautanu on injured reserve, the news will likely send Daniels to the reserve as well, though, unlike Fautanu, there will be no shot at postseason return should the torn Achilles report be true.
In the meantime, Pittsburgh drafted rookie Mason McCormick to take over for Daniels, but that was meant to occur in 2025, not this year.
That plan will be sped up.
And while the team loses one guard, they are set to gain another offensive lineman back via Isaac Seumalo, who is arguably the best lineman on the team and who's return is needed now more than ever.
