Steelers OLBs Watt, Adeniyi Injured Early Against Browns

The Pittsburgh Steelers are in the first quarter of their Thursday night game against the Cleveland Browns and already two of their outside linebackers have gotten injured.

Outside linebacker Olasunkanmi Adeniyi left early in the game to be checked for a concussion following a tackle on a punt. He is questionable to return to the game.

Additionally, T.J. Watt seemingly suffered an injury to his midsection and was in pain as he walked off the field. No update has been proved yet on Watt yet.

UPDATE: Watt returned to the game.

The Steelers dressed four outside linebackers Thursday night with Adeniyi backing up watt and Bud Dupree as Anthony Chickillo is inactive with a rib injury. The team signed Jayrone Elliott to the roster earlier in the day and he did not practice all week.

The Steelers currently trail the Browns 7-0.
