The Pittsburgh Steelers got their weekly offensive line injury out of the way early in Sunday's season opener versus the Tennessee Titans. Three-time Pro Bowl center Maurkice Pouncey was carted off the field in the first quarter after sustaining an apparent right knee injury. Teammate David DeCastro dove on a cut-block attempt, missing his intended target and drilling Pouncey directly in the back of the leg. DeCastro looked distraught as Pouncey rolled on the ground in pain. This has the look of a multi-week injury, which would be a severe blow to the Steelers' run blocking and pass protection.
