Steelers' Minkah Fitzpatrick Returns Despite Injury Against Ravens

The Pittsburgh Steelers secondary took another blow against the Ravens.

BALTIMORE -- The Pittsburgh Steelers defense took another blow against the Baltimore Ravens as safety Minkah Fitzpatrick went down on the opening drive of the second half with an injury.

Fitzpatrick tackled Ravens tight end Mark Andrews and remained on the ground afterward. Trainers began attending to him while teammates kneeled around him. While the injury is unknown, the situation appeared serious. 

Fitzpatrick went into the blue medical tent afterward to continue being evaluated.

The Steelers have already lost cornerback James Pierre in this game and came into the week without Tre Norwood. They're now down to Terrell Edmunds, Damontae Kazee, Miles Killebrew and Elijah Riley at safety. 

UPDATE: Fitzpatrick has returned to the field after evaluation. He made the tackle on quarterback Tyler Huntley in his first play back.
