Mike Tomlin told reporters that Steelers TE MyCole Pruitt suffered a knee injury against the Broncos in Week 2.

The Steelers frequently utilize both two- and three-tight end snaps so Pruitt’s injury may somewhat alter their game plans moving forward. Though the Steelers’ run-heavy play-calling can frustrate fantasy managers, Pruitt is a bullying blocker and his potential absence could be felt, if slightly. Among 65 NFL tight ends with at least 35 offensive snaps, Pruitt’s 63.2 PFF run-blocking grade ranks 13th. LB Tyler Matakevich also suffered a hamstring injury.
