Steelers S Minkah Fitzpatrick questionable to return with knee injury

The Steelers are missing both of their starting safeties against the Colts.

The Pittsburgh Steelers announced that star safety Minkah Fitzpatrick is questionable to return after suffering a knee injury in the second quarter against the Indianapolis Colts.

It wasn’t clear just how Fitzpatrick hurt his knee as he and another Steelers attempted to make a tackle. With Fitzpatrick out, the Steelers are missing both of their starting safeties. Just a few plays before the injury, Damontae Kazee was ejected after a brutal hit on Colts wide receiver Michael Pittman Jr.

The Steelers lead the Colts 13-7 in the final seconds of the first half. No word yet if Fitzpatrick will return in the second half.
