According to Pittsburgh Steelers ESPN writer Brooke Pryor, backup nose tackle Montravius Adams is out for the remainder of the game with a knee injury he suffered in the first half against the New York Jets.

With Adams out, the Steelers defensive line rotation gets very thin. Adams was the only interior defensive lineman who typically rotates in with starter Keeanu Benton. This could push Cameron Heyward inside more along with Larry Ogunjobi to be sure the Steelers have the bodies to slow down the Jets run game.
