The Doctor Is In: Antonio Brown’s Calf Injury Shouldn’t Cost Him A Playoff Game

The injury bug bit again on Sunday night at Heinz Field. Pittsburgh Steelers WR Antonio Brown bobbled a pass in the end zone and was briefly sandwiched between two New England Patriots defenders. In the traffic, Brown took a hit to his left lower leg and had to be assisted off the field. Although he was able to walk to the locker room, he was done for the night and probably for the next few weeks.

Initial reports called it a calf injury, implying that the Xrays done immediately did not show any fractures (broken bones).
