PITTSBURGH – B.J. Finney becomes the latest casualty to the Steelers offensive line. Finney left Pittsburgh’s game against Baltimore in the second quarter with a back injury. He is out for the rest of the game.

Offensive lineman John Leglue entered the game in replace of Finney, making his NFL debut at left guard. Leglue was with the team’s practice squad in 2020 and was one of the final cuts as the Steelers got down to the 53-man roster limit. Leglue played tackle, guard and center for the Steelers during training camp.

An undrafted free agent out of Tulane in 2019, Leglue latched onto a few practice squads around the league before finding his way to Pittsburgh in December of 2020.
