Steelers LB Patrick Queen injured in Week 13, status revealed

The Pittsburgh Steelers received a massive blow to their defense, as LB Patrick Queen has been ruled out of the Week 13 matchup against the Buffalo Bills with a hip injury.

With around two minutes remaining in the second quarter, Queen and DT Cam Heyward tackled Bills QB Josh Allen after a two-yard gain, but the Steelers linebacker would head into the blue medical tent with a hip injury immediately after.

While originally questionable to return, it wouldn't take long for Queen to be ruled out shortly after — leaving Pittsburgh down to Malik Harrison and Payton Wilson at linebacker.

Since joining Pittsburgh, Queen has been one of the healthiest starters on defense — not missing a single game due to injury.

We at Steelers Wire will keep you all updated on Queen's injury as more information becomes available, with HC Mike Tomlin giving us a better idea of his condition in the post-game press conference.
