Partially torn calf

[Steelhere10]

Muscle for AB. Not season ending.

[Ernie]

Glad to see he will be back. Man plays with a ton of heart

[WB Tarleton]

Yep. Expected back for post season.

[SidSmythe]

Brown and Haden both healthy in Postseason will make us contenders

[Shoe]

Is this confirmed though? I don't want to celebrate that, only to find other things here. Because it looked like his lower leg wobbled, like a broken leg might. I only looked at it once though.

[Moonie]

I though he broke his leg too. This is good news.

[Slapstick]

They said he received x-rays...

[SteelBucks]

Different player but Conner may have an MCL issue. He may be done for the season.

[Captain Lemming]

If Brown recovers fully, it might be a blessing in disguise as Ben will continue to sharpen his game without his “safety net”.

[Docosc]

Loved how MB stepped up. If he can keep that up, JJSS keeps doing what he is doing (mad props to the front office on him!!) and the TE's hold on to the ball, our O could be unstoppable. Of course, so did Gronk seem to be, so it may come down to another shootout, but I am ok with that. I like our chances in that scenario.

There's no way at all Brown can come back at *anything* close to what he was if he had a torn call muscle.

His super sharp cuts are a major part of his game, either for getting open, or getting 15-20 yac.

All my opinion of course. And of course it's best to have AB on the field, but with MB stepping up and JuJu out there, I still think our offense can win us any game through February.

I tend to agree. Can't see how you come back quickly from this and have the quickness and explosiveness you need to be AB at his best

JuJu is THE MAN. Never doubted he was a great pick even though others were pouring hate on him. Hard to believe he is the youngest player in the NFL.

Well, he does have a full month before the first playoff game. I think a month is a good chunk of time for a muscle.

There are different degrees of muscle tearing...I'm guessing Tomlin and the Steelers will never let on how severe or minor until the playoffs
