The Pittsburgh Steelers’ defense has suffered a bunch of key injuries this year, and the latest position group to get the injury bug is the inside linebackers. Cole Holcomb went down in Week Nine against the Tennessee Titans and will miss the rest of the season. Sunday, Kwon Alexander was injured on the opening defensive drive and did not return to the game.
Head coach Mike Tomlin described his injury as a “serious lower body injury,” and Adam Schefter reported on X after the game that Alexander will miss the season with a torn Achilles.
