This is the last thing the Pittsburgh Steelers wanted to hear — and football fans in general for that matter — was an injury to Antonio Brown.
Early in the first quarter of today’s AFC showdown between the Steelers and Patriots in Pittsburgh, Brown was helped off the field after suffering a knee injury.
At first glance, many called it an ankle injury but it was later diagnosed as a calf bruise.
#84 Antonio Brown sustained a left calf injury.
His return is questionable to tonight’s game.

During halftime of the game, the Steelers ruled out Brown and said that the MVP candidate would be taken to the hospital for further evaluations:

How serious this injury is is yet to be determined but one can assume it does not sound good.
