Steelersâ€™ linebacker LaMarr Woodley was out with Hamstring injury on Sunday games against Patriots. This might sideline him for next week rematch with the Baltimore Ravens.

The last thing that Pittsburgh Steelers need is another injury, but itâ€™s linebacker Woodley picked up an injury, where he sustained injury as a hamstring on the Sundayâ€™s game against New England Patriots. Reportedly, Woodley was injured late during the third quarter when he pulled up while pass rushing Patriots quarterback Tom Brady. He was replaced by Chris Carter.

The Steelers also entered Sunday’s game without James Harrison (eye surgery) and Jason Worilds (thigh), though the newspaper reported that Harrison will be examined this week and could return against Baltimore. If the Steelers don’t regain any of the injured linebackers, the starters next week would likely be Carter, Stevenson Sylvester, Larry Foote and Lawrence Timmons.

The bad news for Steelers fans is that, linebacker James Farrior, who was inactive, has a torn calf that could sideline him until December. Now, Steelers will face stiff task ahead with Ravens in their rematch.
