Steelers Safety Minkah Fitzpatrick to miss Sunday’s game with appendicitis

Written by Tony Ghaul

Pittsburgh Steelers safety Minkah Fitzpatrick has been downgraded to out and will miss Sunday’s game against the Saints due to appendicitis.

Fitzpatrick has three picks, one of which he took back for a score, and 45 tackles through seven games this year.

Fitzpatrick has missed one game this season, in Week 6 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers because of a knee injury. He was placed in the concussion protocol ahead of a Week 4 matchup against the New York Jets, but he didn’t miss time.
