Report: Pectoral Tear Feared For Steelers DE Stephon Tuitt

There is no definitive word as of Monday evening on the condition of Pittsburgh Steelers defensive end Stephon Tuitt, who suffered a pectoral injury early in the team’s Sunday night road game against the Los Angles Chargers. However, Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network weighed in Monday evening on what he has heard about Tuitt’s injury status and the outlook doesn’t seem to be great.

“Well, they are still waiting for the tests on Stephon Tuitt’s injury, but my understanding is the fear is that it is at the least a partially torn pec, potentially a fully torn pec,” Rapport reported Monday evening.
