Steelers Now
PITTSBURGH – The Pittsburgh Steelers suffered another injury at the offensive tackle position, with backup swing tackle Calvin Anderson listed as limited in practice on Wednesday during the team’s first session of Week 14 at UPMC Rooney Sports Complex.
Anderson was listed as limited in practice with a knee injury. He had played during the team’s Week 13 loss to the Buffalo Bills on Sunday, but appeared in just one snap of special teams — the Steelers’ only scrimmage kick, when Chris Boswell drilled a first-half extra point to give the team an early lead. He did not appear to suffer any obvious injury on that play, and it’s unclear when he was injured. Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin did not mention Anderson in his injury rundown either after the game or on Tuesday at his weekly press conference.
The Steelers are already down one tackle, as starting left tackle Broderick Jones will miss at least the next three weeks, and likely the remainder of the 2025 season, after suffering a neck injury against the Chicago Bears in Week 12.
Veteran guard/tackle Andrus Peat moved to left tackle to replace Jones, and is expected to start there again this week. If Anderson can’t play as the team’s backup swing tackle, Dylan Cook would be a candidate to be elevated from the practice squad.
Anderson first joined the Steelers in the middle of the 2024 season and he re-signed with the team in the 2025 offseason on a two-year deal. He appeared in four games last season and nine so far this year. He made his biggest contribution for the team in 2024, when he appeared in 29 offensive snaps in the playoff game against the Baltimore Ravens after an injury to left tackle Dan Moore.
