The Pittsburgh Steelers' defense is getting one of the game's best pass rushers back this weekend in T.J. Watt, but it also took an unexpected hit Saturday.
Two-time All-Pro safety Minkah Fitzpatrick underwent an appendectomy and may miss multiple weeks.
The Steelers announced the injury Saturday and ruled him out for Sunday's game against the New Orleans Saints.

Fitzpatrick has been able to stay healthy throughout his entire NFL career, missing just three games since he was drafted in the first round out of Alabama in 2018.
In seven games this season, the New Jersey native has recorded 45 tackles and three interceptions, one of which he took to the house.
