If the Pittsburgh Steelers are to avenge their opening week loss to the Baltimore Ravens they'll likely have to do so without star linebacker LaMarr Woodley.
A team source told the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette that Woodley's hamstring injury is "not good" and he'll miss Sunday night's game vs. Baltimore and likely the next game against the Cincinnati Bengals. The newspaper reported that he might be able to return after the team's Nov. 20 bye.
Woodley has been on a tear with 7.5 sacks in his past four games, including two against the New England Patriots in Sunday's victory, but he sat out the fourth quarter after injuring the hamstring in the third quarter. He leads the AFC with nine sacks.
Coach Mike Tomlin might address Woodley's status at his weekly news conference later Tuesday.
The Steelers also will be without starting linebackers James Harrison and James Farrior versus the Ravens, as well.
Harrison announced on his Twitter account: "Saw the doctor today. Looks like I won't be playing this weekend but at least I'm cleared for practice."
Farrior is expected to miss as much as a month with a calf injury.
Harrison also might miss the next game at Cincinnati -- but he thinks he'll be available for the Steelers' final six games.
"Worst-case scenario, I'll be back after the bye for sure," Harrison posted on Twitter.
