Steelers receive 2 key injury updates after Week 13 loss to Bills

The Pittsburgh Steelers provided two key injury updates following their Week 13 loss to the Buffalo Bills, courtesy of HC Mike Tomlin.

In his post-game press conference, Tomlin addressed the injuries of two Steelers who were ruled out during the game — LB Patrick Queen and CB James Pierre.

"[Patrick] Queen had a contusion," Tomlin told reporters. "He wasn’t able to run, so he wasn’t allowed to return to the game. James Pierre is in the concussion protocol."

With about two minutes remaining in the first half, Queen was initially deemed questionable to return with a hip injury but was soon downgraded to out for the remainder of the contest. LB Malik Harrison stepped in for Queen, while CB Asante Samuel Jr. took over the outside cornerback role in Pierre’s absence.

We at Steelers Wire will keep you updated on the conditions of both Queen and Pierre as more information becomes available throughout the week, ahead of their matchup with the Baltimore Ravens next Sunday.
