Steelers Get Exciting News About Alex Highsmith's Return From Injury

   

The Pittsburgh Steelers have been bitten pretty severely by the injury bug early on in the 2024 season. The offensive line has been ripped apart, as both James Daniels and Troy Fautanu are expected to miss the rest of the season. Other areas that are weak thanks to injury include running back, cornerback, and outside linebacker. Perhaps the biggest injury on the season so far came in Week 3 against the Los Angeles Chargers when Alex Highsmith couldn't finish the game due to a groin injury.

Highsmith lives in the shadows of TJ Watt in the eyes of the national media, but every Pittsburgh fan knows just how important the outside linebacker is. He earned himself a new deal ahead of the 2023 season, and he is a big reason for the continued success of the Steelers' defense. Highsmith avoided Injured Reserve, but will still miss a chunk of games.
