As reported by ESPN NFL reporter Adam Schefter on Friday, offensive tackle Troy Fautanu suffered a knee injury and was considered out indefinitely. It is now being reported that the Pittsburgh Steelers will be placing the rookie right tackle on Injured/Reserve. The Steelers are preparing to take on the Los Angeles Chargers in the home opener.

An injury on the practice field will cost Steelers rookie right tackle Troy Fautanu at least four weeks. The Steelers have announced that Fautanu is being placed on injured reserve, which means he has to miss at least the next four weeks.

The Pittsburgh Steelers' injuries on the offensive line continue to mount, as ESPN reported on Saturday that first-round pick right tackle Troy Fautanu suffered a knee injury in practice that will sideline him indefinitely.
