Already thin Steelers secondary suffers critical injury

Eric Rowe, who’s proved to be a solid addition after the collapse of the Steelers safety room, is questionable to return with a neck injury.

Eric Rowe, who’s proved to be a solid addition after the collapse of the Pittsburgh Steelers safety room, is questionable to return with a neck injury.

Rowe, called up for the third time this season, was evaluated during the second half. No thanks to injuries and suspensions, Rowe was starting alongside Patrick Peterson. Miles Killebrew and Elijah Riley are the only remaining safeties with Minkah Fitzpatrick and Trenton Thompson sidelined and Damontae Kazee is serving a suspension.

Prior to his injury, Rowe was leading in tackles with five.
