Steelers Rule Out LG Isaac Seumalo for Sunday Night at Chargers With Spencer Anderson Starting

The loss disrupts line continuity, raising questions about Pittsburgh's jumbo rushing package.

Overview

  • The team announced Friday that Isaac Seumalo will miss Week 10 with a pectoral injury after not practicing all week.
  • Spencer Anderson moves into the starting left guard role, marking the first change to Pittsburgh’s starting offensive line this season.
  • Anderson has been the sixth lineman in heavy sets, and his promotion could curtail those packages that boosted the run game earlier this year.
  • Pittsburgh averaged 126 rushing yards per game from Weeks 4–7 using jumbo looks, then dipped to 65.5 over the past two games as Anderson logged more snaps.
  • The Steelers also ruled out wide receiver Scotty Miller (broken finger), safety Jabrill Peppers (quad) and linebacker Cole Holcomb (illness) for Sunday night in Los Angeles.
