Steelers Leave Bengals Game With Two Injuries

The Pittsburgh Steelers have two banged-up wide receivers coming out of Cincinnati.

PITTSBURGH -- The Pittsburgh Steelers left Cincinnati with a crucial victory over their division rivals, the Bengals, but a couple of their pass-catchers got banged up in the process. 

Two Steelers wide receivers went down during the game against the Bengals, head coach Mike Tomlin said following the game. George Pickens "just got the wind knocked out of him", according to Tomlin and Austin is dealing with an ankle injury. 

Pickens went down after making a diving attempt at a deep ball to open the fourth quarter. He returned quickly, without visiting the medical tent, and finished the game with three catches on his five targets for 58 yards, including a massive, 43-yard reception on third down late in the second half prior to what would end up being the game-winning field goal from Chris Boswell. 

He also caught a bounding onside kick attempt from the Bengals and made the heady play to stay on his feet and kill a few seconds before the two-minute warning, ensuring the Steelers could kill the last of the time on the clock without having to run any plays. 

Austin caught just one pass for five yards before exiting the game with his injury. Tomlin added that he does not know the extent of his ailment.
