Kwon Alexander’s season ended before he really had a chance to show his full potential in the Black and Gold.
The Pittsburgh Steelers announced on Tuesday that the 10-year veteran linebacker, who suffered a torn Achilles against the Green Bay Packers, had been placed on injured reserve.
In nine games (two starts), Alexander contributed 41 tackles (five for loss), two quarterback hits, a pass defended, one forced fumble and a sack. His crucial interception against the Tennessee Titans sealed the game.
The Steelers also made a couple of practice squad moves, signaling further additions will be made this week. Guard Joey Fisher and tight end Scotty Washington were released. Defensive tackle Breiden Fehoko was released on Monday.
We have placed LB Kwon Alexander on the Reserve/Injured List and released G Joey Fisher & TE Scotty Washington from the practice squad. @BordasLaw https://t.co/7cmM0wOZJq
