Pittsburgh Steelers OLB Alex Highsmith left the team’s 21-18 loss to the New England Patriots early with a neck injury, another dark cloud that’s hanging over the Steelers after losing to back-to-back 2-10 teams. Ian Rapoport delivered an update on Highsmith on Good Morning Football, and said he will undergo tests today but will have a chance to return in Week 15 against the Indianapolis Colts. Rapoport also tweeted out the update.
“If the Steelers are going to do anything this season, if they’re gonna make that final playoff push, it would certainly help to have one of their two elite pass rushers,” Rapoport said.
