Pittsburgh Steelers star linebacker Alex Highsmith He looks set to miss the next two to three games with an ankle injury, per Gerry Dulac of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. Highsmith was injured on the Commanders’ final drive when he dove to block a screen pass but landed on a player’s ankle.

Highsmith rotated his own ankle due to a basketball-style injury. The injury appeared serious, and Highsmith arrived in the postgame locker room on crutches. However, the team warned that this was unlikely to be a season-ending injury.

Moreover, Steelers will get a linebacker Nick Herbig He returned from his hamstring injury. Herbig was injured in the match Dallas Cowboys and missed the last four games. The Steelers kept him out as a precaution.

Before Highsmith left, he was under pressure in the game despite constant chip support. With Highsmith out for the next few games, his first opportunity to return will likely be on December 1 against the Cincinnati Bengals. If he can’t return then, he will almost certainly have a good chance of returning on December 8th against the Cleveland Browns.
