Alex Highsmith, the Steelers strongside linebacker, left the Thursday night game in the third quarter and is questionable to return with a knee injury. By video, we didn't see an exact play when Highsmith was injured. The 24-year-old's exit leaves the Steelers down two key linebackers after T.J. Watt was ruled out with a groin injury he suffered early in the second quarter.
With the score likely out of hand, don't expect Highsmith to return to the game. The Steelers already thin run defense should have even more trouble handling Minnesota's rushing attack.
