Former Texas Longhorns cornerback Ryan Watts has been placed on season-ending injured reserve ahead of his rookie year with the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Steelers reporter Gerry Dulac. Pittsburgh head coach Mike Tomlin originally described the injury as a stinger, but it appears to have been much more than that. The Steelers did not reveal an official injury designation for Watts when announcing Tuesday that he'd be placed on season-ending injured reserve.
Watts sustained the injury in Pittsburgh's preseason finale against the Detroit Lions on Saturday after taking a knee to the helmet while making a tackle. He was down on the field as medical staff attended to him but fortunately walked off under his own power.

Watts will look to make a recovery before potentially returning to the field in 2025. The Steelers begin the regular season on Sunday, Sept. 8 against the Atlanta Falcons.
