Steelers' Kwon Alexander Out for Season with Achilles Tear

Second Major Injury for Steelers' Linebacker Corps in November

  • Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker Kwon Alexander has suffered a season-ending Achilles tear during a game against the Green Bay Packers.
  • This is the second major injury for the Steelers' linebacker corps this month, following Cole Holcomb's season-ending knee injury.
  • Alexander's injury occurred in the first quarter of the game, and he was later confirmed to be out for the season.
  • Alexander had been a key player for the Steelers, recording 41 tackles, one sack, one interception, and one forced fumble in nine games this season.
  • The Steelers will now have to rely on Elandon Roberts as the only experienced inside linebacker on the roster.
