The Pittsburgh Steelers picked up their first win of the 2023 NFL season on Monday night as they pushed themselves to 1-1 and second place in the AFC North, but even with the incredible performance, the game came with some bad news too.
During the matchup, star safety Minkah Fitzpatrick suffered what is believed to be a chest contusion, but thankfully, after undergoing scans, the team have now revealed they were negative and that there is plenty of optimism that he will be fine going forward.
Ever since landing in Pittsburgh, Fitzpatrick has been one of the most consistent defensive backs in the entire NFL, and now that the Steelers defensive unit is seemingly healthy, if he can stay on the field the whole season, he should have yet another fantastic season.#Steelers star safety Minkah Fitzpatrick was released from the hospital Monday night after undergoing precautionary scans for what is believed to be a chest contusion, per sources.
