The story and theme of the 2019 Pittsburgh Steelers season will be injuries.
QB1: Ben Roethlisberger - Season-ending injury Week 2.
QB2: Mason Rudolph - Concussion, missed 1 game.
RB1: James Conner - Multiple injuries, missed 2 games.
RB2: Jaylen Samuels - Knee injury, missed 2 games.
RB3: Benny Snell - Knee injury, missed 3 games.
FB1: Roosevelt Nix - Season-ending knee injury Week 10.
WR2: James Washington - Shoulder injury, missed 1 game.
WR4: Ryan Switzer - Season-ending back injury Week 10.
TE1: Vance McDonald - Foot Injury, missed 1 game.
With the concussions of JuJu Smith-Schuster and Diontae Johnson, it's quite possible that every single member of our offense (not including the offensive line), will have missed time due to injuries this year. We've had to rely on a 3rd string QB, 4th string RB and our RB corps has played musical chairs with their injuries all year long.
With this said, and with the unknown severity of the concussions for JuJu and Diontae, what is a realistic expectation for the rest of this season?
