Jacoby Brissett is down. The Indianapolis Colts quarterback left Sunday’s game against the Pittsburgh Steelers with an apparent knee injury.
Brissett went down in the first half and could be seen clutching his knee. He is questionable to return, according to the team.
Instant replay showed Brissett got stepped on by his own offensive lineman, causing his left knee to get stuck in the turf and twisted. After the teams went back to the locker room for halftime, it was Hoyer who started the third quarter for Indianapolis under center.
The Colts offense didn’t miss a beat with Brissett on the sidelines. Later on the drive, backup quarterback Brian Hoyer threw a touchdown pass to Jack Doyle.
However later in the first half, Hoyer gave that touchdown right back. With the Colts driving deep in Pittsburgh territory, Hoyer threw an interception to Minkah Fitzpatrick, that was taken all the way back for a touchdown.

Brissett Was Thriving in Indy

Indianapolis current sits atop the AFC South standings with a 5-2 record. Brissett has been doing his best to make the Colts and their fans forget about the retirement of Andrew Luck.
