Steelers Avoid Serious Injuries In 2017 Preseason Opener

The Pittsburgh Steelers won their 2017 preseason opener against the New York Giants 20-12 Friday night at MetLife Stadium and it appears they also won in the health phase of the game.

“Not a lot of injuries to speak of,” Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin said after the game. “JuJu [Smith-Schuster] went out, he’s being evaluated for a concussion. Other than that, not much to speak of. Normal bumps and bruises associated with play.”

JuJu Smith-Schuster, the Steelers second-round draft pick this year out of USC, left the game in the first quarter after attempting to make a tackle following an interception.
