Kwon Alexander Tears Achilles Sunday

Kwon Alexander Tears Achilles Sunday

one year ago

Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker Kwon Alexander (ankle) was diagnosed with a torn Achilles following the team's Week 10 win over the Green Bay Packers. Alexander suffered the injury early in the contest and finished with zero tackles. Given that fellow linebacker Cole Holcomb (knee) suffered a season-ending injury last week, losing Alexander is yet another tough blow for the Pittsburgh defense. Going forward, the majority of his vacated snaps should go to Mark Robinson.
