Steelers LB Alex Highsmith OUT with knee injury

The hits keep coming for the Pittsburgh Steelers defense. The team first announced that outside linebacker T.J. Watt was out with a groin injury. Now the other starting outside linebacker, Alex Highsmith, has been declared out with a knee injury of his own.
