#Steelers CB Ike Taylor suffered a gruesome compound fracture in his right arm.

The defense also lost Jarvis Jones to a wrist injury and Ryan Shazier injured his right knee. Shazier wore a brace after the game. Coach Mike Tomlin didn’t indicate how seriously Jones and Shazier were hurt, but he talked afterward about multiple “significant injuries.”

**UPDATE**

Steelers OLB Jarvis Jones needs wrist surgery and is out indefinitely. Steelers ILB Ryan Shazier has been diagnosed with a sprained MCL. Shazier is undergoing an MRI Monday to determine how long he’ll be out.
