The Steelers placed Fehoko (arm/shoulder) on injured reserve Saturday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports. Fehoko was dealing with arm and shoulder injuries that forced him to leave Wednesday's practice. Now that he's been placed on IR, the 27-year-old will be forced to miss the entire 2024 season unless he reaches an injury settlement with Pittsburgh. His last NFL action was in 2022 with the Chargers, when he recorded 23 tackles (10 solo) in nine regular-season games.

The Steelers placed Fehoko (arm/shoulder) on injured reserve Saturday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports. Fehoko was dealing with arm and shoulder injuries that forced him to leave Wednesday's practice. Now that he's been placed on IR, the 27-year-old will be forced to miss the entire 2024 season unless he reaches an injury settlement with Pittsburgh. His last NFL action was in 2022 with the Chargers, when he recorded 23 tackles (10 solo) in nine regular-season games.
Fehoko left Wednesday's practice with arm and shoulder injuries, Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com reports. The extent of Fehoko's injuries are unknown, but this likely doesn't help his chances of making Pittsburgh's 53-man roster. The 27-year-old nose tackle is expected to continue competing for a depth spot on the Steelers' defensive line once he returns to full health.
Unless he's claimed by another team during the current waiver period, Fehoko is now set to become a free agent. He has not appeared in a regular-season game in 2023.
