The Pittsburgh Steelers have gotten off to a slow start against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. After forcing a Tampa Bay punt on the first drive of the game, Mason Rudolph threw an interception, which led to a Buccaneers touchdown.
However, the score is not of the utmost importance – player performance and health are the most important factors, and the Steelers had one of their stars leave the game with injury.
Edge rusher Nick Herbig was seen going into the blue medical tent, per Nick Farabaugh of PennLive.
Burt Lauten adds that Herbig is dealing with a hamstring injury and won’t return for the remainder of the game.
Long snapper Christian Kuntz is also dealing with what appears to be a shoulder injury, as he was in the blue medical tent as well. We will keep you updated as more information becomes available.
UPDATE: LS Christian Kuntz has a chest injury.
