The Ravens and Steelers are set for an intense AFC North showdown in Week 5, and Pittsburgh will likely be without quarterback Kenny Pickett.
Ian Rapoport said the second-year signal caller didn’t suffer an ACL injury in Sunday’s loss to the Texans, but he will miss time.
Initial testing on Kenny Pickett yesterday didn’t point to an ACL injury, sources say, so the hope for the #Steelers QB is it’ll only be a brief absence. They have the #Ravens Sunday and then a bye. https://t.co/NVobNSI5JR

Pickett was injured while trying to avoid being sacked on a fourth-and-1 drop back from the Texans’ 33 with 1:16 remaining in the third quarter.
Pickett, who completed 15 of 23 passes for 114 yards with one interception, left the contest and will be evaluated further on Monday.
Mitchell Trubisky would start against a talented Ravens defense that gave the Browns fits in a 28-3 win in Cleveland.
