Steelers' Skylar Thompson Reportedly Assaulted and Robbed in Dublin

The team says it is working with NFL security to gather details.

Overview

  • Reports say Thompson suffered minor injuries Friday night in Dublin and stayed with the team for the weekend.
  • The Steelers acknowledged the situation in a statement and said they will have no further comment while information is gathered.
  • Thompson was already on injured reserve with a hamstring injury, so his game status in Ireland was unchanged.
  • The incident occurred as Pittsburgh was in Dublin for Sunday's matchup against the Vikings.
  • Specifics of what happened have not been released beyond the team's statement and media reports.
