The Pittsburgh Steelers made a few transactions on Wednesday, and both included players being waived as injured.
According to the Steelers on Wednesday, defensive back Demarkus Acy and tackle Anthony Coyle have both been waived as injured. Assuming they both clear waivers, which they should, both will then revert to the Steelers Reserve/Injured list.
Acy announced Tuesday night on Twitter that he had suffered a torn ACL during Tuesday’s practice. That injury will obviously likely require surgery so he’s likely to stay on Reserve/Injured all season.
After going undrafted in the 2020, Acy originally signed with the San Francisco 49ers but wound up being released in mid-August.
