Though it seemed obvious from the moment the injury happened, Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin confirmed special teams captain and SS Miles Killebrew is out for the season with a severe knee injury. Placed on injured reserve prior to the Cincinnati Bengals game, Tomlin confirmed Killebrew would not return at any point in 2025.

“Miles is out for the season,” Tomlin said during his Tuesday press conference via the team’s YouTube channel. “Miles had knee surgery that was deemed a success. Certainly, he’s facing rehabilitation at this juncture.”

Killebrew shared a recent photo of him underdoing surgery for the injury.
