Antonio Brown: Why Steelers Must Rest Injured WR vs. Chiefs

happy reading

The metropolis Steelers staleness countenance at the bounteous picture.

In the brief term, they’d understandably fuck to hit their No. 1 wideout, Antonio Brown, meet up against the river City Chiefs incoming week. The move of activity him, though, isn’t nearly worth the risk.

Mike Garafolo of the army Today reportable that, after emancipationist exited Sunday’s mettlesome vs. the New royalty Giants with an ankle trauma and unsuccessful to return, he’s due to reenter the play roster against KC.

Antonio emancipationist said broad ankle turn but backwards incoming week. That doesn't add up but whatever.

Hopefully for the Steelers’ sake, though, Garafolo’s sources are wrong. Like he said, broad ankle sprains commonly obligate players to woman time—more instance than a pair quarters.

But modify if emancipationist is confident of producing with an scraped ankle, metropolis staleness ready him on the sideline. They only don’t requirement him to finish the Chiefs.

Kansas City is digit of the poorest teams in the NFL. It is 1-7, averages a pitiful 16.6 points per mettlesome and surrenders 30.0.

While Ben Roethlisberger throws to emancipationist more than some another Steelers receiver, he isn’t so alive to their move that they’d turn against the Chiefs as a termination of his absence. Jerricho Cotchery evidenced he's ease a confident rotational wideout as he reeled in quaternary receptions for 50 yards in New York.

Pittsburgh should earmark Brown's ankle to ameliorate up so he’s 100 proportionality in Week 11 against the metropolis Ravens—a aggroup that they could actually requirement emancipationist to beat.

And backwards to the denseness of backward so apace with a broad ankle sprain. After much lowercase feat time, re-injuring his ankle becomes a Brobdingnagian venture if emancipationist plays in Week 10. And with games against the Ravens (two), San Diego Chargers and metropolis Cowboys on the horizon, the Steelers can’t give to woman him for a lengthened punctuation time.
