Steelers Killebrew To Have Season-Ending Knee Surgery

PITTSBURGH (AP) — Pittsburgh Steelers special teams captain Miles Killebrew will miss the rest of the season with a knee injury. Killebrew, a two-time Pro Bowler and 2023 All-Pro, injured his knee earlier this month on what his teammates described as an unsafe turf at Acrisure Stadium. Veteran safety Jabrill Peppers filled in for Killebrew as the personal protector on punts, but Tomlin isn’t ready to make it permanent. Outside of Killebrew, the Steelers are relatively healthy as they prepare for a Sunday night game against Green Bay. Wide receiver Calvin Austin III could return after missing two games with a shoulder injury.
