The inside linebacker position for the Pittsburgh Steelers has been decimated by injuries this season, losing the likes of veterans Cole Holcomb and Kwon Alexander to season-ending injuries in back-to-back weeks in Weeks Eight and Nine.
That led to Pittsburgh signing former linebacker Myles Jack off the street to the practice squad, and signing veteran linebacker Blake Martinez off of the Carolina Panthers’ practice squad to the 53-man roster.
Now, the Steelers might need to turn to those two veterans in Week 14 and beyond after veteran Elandon Roberts went down with a groin injury Sunday against the Arizona Cardinals, tried to return, and left after one additional snap.
