Report: Steelers CB Joe Haden Has Sprained AC Joint
Steelers cornerback Joe Haden suffered a sprained acromioclavicular joint in Sunday’s 33-3 loss to the New England Patriots, according to a https://twitter.com/RapSheet/status/1171117631782494209″>report
by Ian Rapaport of NFL Network.
Haden left the game with what head coach Mike Tomlin described as a shoulder injury and was later able to return. He finished the game with six tackles, tied for third on the team. Tomlin did not provide a further post-game update on Haden.
The AC joint connects the clavicle to the top of the shoulder and allows for arms to be lifted above the head

the injury would be unlikely to prevent Haden from playing this Sunday against the Seattle Seahawks.
