Local News says its a Left Knee Injury. Nothing more atm.
LETS GO MOUNTAINEERS!
Here We Go Steelers!
Tomlin just said MCL sprain, it could be 3-6. I assume he means weeks??? He said all the details aren't back yet, it could be worse.
Looking like 3 to 6 weeks. My guess would be closer to 3 than 6. He's in tremendous shape, and I think that will matter.

Tomlin is saying it's a sprain and doesn't know for sure but even an MCL TEAR shouldn't be season ending. Generally the grade 3 tear would be 3 to 4 months and that's worst case scenario.Grade 1 or 2 TEAR isn't much worse tha a sprain.It's all speculation at this point though.
I'd love to see him back by San Diego which is just over 3 weeks from tonight.
From what i saw and my slightly trained eye, it's not serious.
I actually told my 9 yr old son right after the play that it didn't look good the way Troy was landed on. Come back from commercial and my worst fears were confirmed. But looking at the replay, it wasn't a full speed contact thing, it was more of a stretching a joint beyond it's normal range of motion.

BYE
My money is on he'll return after the BYE week....if it's not worse than a sprain. I hope Carter and Mundy are up to the challenge.
I hope so too. They laid an egg the series right after Polamalu went down.Originally Posted by SteelerBuck
Great news if it is indeed just a sprain and there's no tearing!!
How many weeks did Ben miss when he had a knee sprained by Castillo against San Diego a couple years ago? Was that an MCL sprain (his bent from a totally different angle) or...? Also didn't woodley or another d player sustain a sprained knee last year and miss very little time? Obviously the degree of a sprain varies infinitely which would largely influence how long a person would sit out.
Dale Lolley is reporting that Troy may be out 3 - 6 weeks. Too bad it comes with Chi, Cin, and SD, but I'd rather he miss time at the front end of the season than the back end (or the playoffs). At least it's not the whole season. I was encouraged that he walked off himself.
