Pittsburgh Steelers rookie DL Derrick Harmon will miss several weeks with a sprained MCL suffered last night. However, according to the PPG’s Gerry Dulac, Harmon won’t spend his first NFL weeks on injured reserve. In a Friday evening tweet, Dulac indicated Harmon would not be placed on injured reserve, a move that would keep him out at least the first month of the season. And given the Steelers’ Week Five bye, make for a Week Six debut at the earliest.
An MRI confirmed Derrick Harmon has an MCL sprain that could keep him out 4-6 weeks, per sources.
