The Pittsburgh Steelers will head to Cleveland to take on the Browns this Sunday, but there’s one rookie running back they won’t be facing — Quinshon Judkins — who will reportedly miss the remainder of the season with a fractured fibula and a dislocated ankle.
During Tuesday’s press conference, Steelers HC Mike Tomlin discussed Judkins’ injury and offered kind words to the Browns rookie during this difficult time.
“Their top young runner got hurt,” Tomlin said about Judkins’ injury. “I just got a lot of respect for that young man and how he plays. Certainly, I never want to see anybody get hurt significantly that way. And so, just sending well wishes to him.”
In 14 games, Judkins rushed for 827 yards and seven touchdowns on 230 attempts. He also caught 26 passes for another 171 yards.
Without Judkins this Sunday, running backs Dylan Sampson and Raheim Sanders will lead the Cleveland rushing attack against a Pittsburgh defense that allowed just 15 total yards in Week 16’s victory over the Detroit Lions.
