Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Kenny Pickett was ruled out of Sunday’s home game against the Jacksonville Jaguars after leaving with a rib injury.

At the end of the first half, Pickett was tackled and landed on his right shoulder. He was holding the shoulder as he was helped off by trainers and headed to the locker room.

Pickett, who was 10-of-16 passing for 73 yards before exiting, was replaced by Mitch Trubisky in the second half.

Steelers safety Minkah Fitzpatrick injured his hamstring earlier in Sunday’s game and also was ruled out.
