Let’s hope this one isn’t true. NFL Network reporter Tom Pelissero is reporting that Pittsburgh Steelers offensive tackle Zach Banner suffered a torn ACL in Monday night’s win over the New York Giants and his season is over.

Banner won the starting right tackle job in the final week of training camp after working hard to rebuild his body and battle Chuks Okorafor for the spot all summer long. This injury would send Banner to the IR, put Okorafor into the starting lineup and put the Steelers on the hunt for depth at tackle.
