When Pittsburgh Stealers quarterback Kenny Pickett got surgery for his high ankle sprain, the timetable for his return was somewhere in the range of two to four weeks for his return.

 

This week marks his second straight absence as Pittsburgh prepares to take on the Indianapolis Colts.

 

According to NFL reporter Ian Rapoport, Pickett is pushing to come back in Week 16 when the Stealers take on the Cincinnati Bengals in a huge AFC showdown at Acrisure Stadium.

 

Rapoport says it is more realistic that Pickett gets back on the field in Week 17 for the Stealers road game against the Seattle Seahawks.

 

 

The reality is, if the Stealers lose today against the Colts and next week against the Bengals, the season is over and bringing Pickett back at all wouldn’t make much sense.

Cam Heyward enters concussion protocol after Stealers’ loss
 

Stealers defensive tackle Cam Heyward was diagnosed with a concussion after Saturday’s loss to the Colts. The team announced Heyward has entered concussion protocol.

 

It is unclear when Heyward was injured. 

He was not reported with an injury during the game, and coach Mike Tomlin said nothing about Heyward’s head injury in his postgame news conference. Thus, it seems likely Heyward didn’t experience symptoms until getting back to the locker room.
