Pittsburgh Steelers Face Injury Challenges Against Ravens

The Pittsburgh Steelers faced significant injury challenges during their 34-17 loss to the Baltimore Ravens, with cornerback Joey Porter Jr. and wide receiver Ben Skowronek both suffering injuries. Porter Jr. was ruled out after initially reporting calf pain that turned out to be a knee injury, while Skowronek, who had two receptions in the game, suffered a hip injury but returned after halftime. The Steelers were already missing key players including wide receiver George Pickens, who has been ruled out due to a hamstring injury, and quarterback Justin Fields, whose absence diminished the team's offensive potential. The Ravens also dealt with injury concerns, as both Nelson Agholor and Rashod Bateman were listed as questionable, with Bateman seen in a walking boot. The Steelers will play the Kansas City Chiefs on Wednesday, adding urgency to their injury woes. The situation is critical as the team prepares for their upcoming games with a heavily depleted roster.
