Quarterback Deshaun Watson left the Pittsburgh Steelers' game on Sunday after sustaining an injury, forcing rookie Shedeur Sanders to take over under center for four plays.
The incident occurred during the November 1, 2026 matchup. Watson departed the contest and did not return, while Sanders, making his first regular-season appearance, directed the offense for a brief series before the drive concluded.
No further details on the nature or severity of Watson's injury were immediately available. The team has not released an official update on his status moving forward.
