Steelers training camp injury update: Multiple starters continue to miss practice
The Steelers put on the pads on Sunday but several starters were once again held out of practice with injuries.
On Sunday, the Pittsburgh Steelers continued their training camp with a full workout, marking one of their final two padded practices. However, several key starters were unable to join their teammates on the field due to injuries. The players who missed practice included wide receiver DK Metcalf, receiver Michael Pittman Jr., defensive tackle Sebastian Joseph, safety Jaquan Brisker, safety Israel Mukuamu, cornerback Brandin Echols, offensive tackle Max Iheanacho, and wide receiver Brandon Smith.
This brings the total number of starters sidelined to five, in addition to Joey Porter Jr., the starting cornerback, and Jalen Ramsey, the defensive back, who remain on the PUP (Physically Unable to Practice) list. As the Steelers prepare for their next preseason game against the New York Jets on Friday, it would be beneficial to see more of the injured starters receive some live reps together before the season kicks off.
