Pittsburgh Steelers’ rookie outside linebacker Keion Adams is expected to have surgery on his injured left shoulder and be placed on the team’s injured reserve list in the near future, a source told Steelers Depot today.
Adams suffered the injury during the eighth day of practice and has periodically had his left shoulder iced up during practice since. He was enjoying a solid start to camp and looking to battle Arthur Moats for the fifth – and likely final – outside linebacker spot.
The source did not know when the team would announce the move or when Adams would land on injured reserve.
