Mandatory Credit: Barry Reeger-Imagn Images Pittsburgh Steelers starting right tackle Troy Fautanu will miss Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Chargers, the team said.
He suffered a knee injury during Friday's practice and will be out indefinitely, ESPN reported Saturday.
The rookie was still being evaluated as of Saturday morning.
The Steelers selected Fautanu, 23, with the 20th overall pick of the 2024 NFL Draft. He has played in just one NFL game, the Steelers' 13-6 win over the Denver Broncos last Sunday.
He sustained a left-knee injury on Aug. 9 in his team's preseason opener against the Houston Texans.
