What happened: Pittsburgh Steelers defensive tackle Derrick Harmon is expected to miss a few weeks after suffering a foot injury on Thursday night. While injured reserve is an option, the issue is not considered long-term.

Why it matters: His absence creates another hole for a defense already adjusting to the recent trade of cornerback Joey Porter Jr. to the Cowboys. The Steelers are managing multiple roster challenges following a 27-24 loss to the Browns.

What to watch: The team will evaluate internal roster options while Harmon undergoes further assessment.
