Overview
- After a hard shot to the midsection in the win at Baltimore, DK Metcalf developed stomach pain on the team plane and was sent to a local hospital out of caution.
- He stayed overnight for evaluation to rule out internal injury, was discharged, and returned to Pittsburgh on Monday.
- Tomlin said Metcalf is "moving in the right direction" and does not expect his status for Week 15 against the Dolphins to be jeopardized, though early‑week practice could be limited.
- Metcalf delivered season highs with seven receptions for 148 yards against the Ravens, underscoring his value to Pittsburgh’s offense.
- The Steelers improved to 7–6 and reclaimed the AFC North lead, and the upcoming Monday night game carries playoff implications for both teams.
