Steelers lose DT Keeanu Benton to ankle injury

Late in the third quarter of the Pittsburgh Steelers preseason game with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, rookie defensive tackle Keeanu Benton went out with an ankle injury. According to KDKA sports reporter Rich Walsh, Benton is out for the remainder of the game.
