PITTSBURGH (AP) – Pittsburgh Steelers defensive end Stephon Tuitt’s season is over. The Steelers placed Tuitt on injured reserve after Tuitt tore a pectoral muscle in the first quarter of a 24-17 win over the Los Angeles Chargers. The six-year veteran was in the midst of his best season, racking up 3 1/2 sacks and six tackles for loss in just over five games. Tyson Alualu will get the first crack at filling in for Tuitt when Pittsburgh returns to play on Oct. 28 against Miami.
