Steelers TE Pat Freiermuth pops up on injury report

The Pittsburgh Steelers are gearing up for their Week 9 matchup with the Indianapolis Colts, and their first practice report is a lengthy one, as several players are dealing with injuries.

Most notably, tight end Pat Freiermuth popped up on the injury report with a quad injury and did not practice on Wednesday. He left the game against the Green Bay Packers after taking a hard hit to his lower body, which is likely where the injury occurred.
