The Pittsburgh Steelers may have won their week 2 matchup, but it came with a cost.
Following a big run by the Browns, Steelers All-Pro safety Minkah Fitzpatrick left the game and headed to the hospital.
Waiting to hear the latest on his status, Mike Tomlin just offered all Steelers fans a sigh of relief:
"It Was A Precaution"
"He was taken to the hospital as a precaution," Coach Tomlin told reporters on Tuesday. They feel good about where he is. We'll see where the week leads us." Fitzpatrick has been released from the hospital and we will see his activity level throughout this week's practice.
As far as Gunner Olszewski, he is in the concussion protocol, and the information is "limited" according to Coach T.
Elandon Roberts has a "stinger" and will be monitored throughout the week as he gains his strength back.
Coach T also said they will work with all healthy and available bodies as others get back to health.
