Steelers Place Dunker on IR

The Pittsburgh Steelers have placed rookie guard Jennings Dunker on injured reserve due to an MCL sprain he suffered during practice. The third-round pick from Iowa was inactive for the first two games and is expected to miss 4-6 weeks.

The team signed running back Travis Homer from the practice squad and elevated Lew Nichols and Doneiko Slaughter to fill the roster spot. With Rico Dowdle out with a toe injury and Jaylen Warren questionable with a shoulder injury, the Steelers need depth at running back for their upcoming game against the Bengals. xsportfeed.life
