Steelers' James Daniels Out for Season with Achilles Tear

The Pittsburgh Steelers face a deepening offensive line crisis as multiple key players, including James Daniels, are sidelined by injuries.

James Daniels, the Steelers' starting right guard, sustained an Achilles tear in Week 4 against the Indianapolis Colts and will miss the remainder of the 2024 season.
Daniels' injury adds to a growing list of absences on the Steelers' offensive line, including rookie right tackle Troy Fautanu and center Nate Herbig, both also out for the season.
Left guard Isaac Seumalo has missed the first four games of the season due to a pectoral injury but is expected to return soon.
Spencer Anderson and Mason McCormick, both young and relatively inexperienced, will be relied upon to fill the gaps in the offensive line.
Daniels had been a consistent presence since joining the Steelers in 2022, starting 36 games over three seasons before his injury.
