Steelers QB Howard evaluated for head injury

Steelers backup quarterback Will Howard is being evaluated for a head injury after reporting discomfort during the second half of Pittsburgh's 28-27 preseason loss to Buffalo.

Howard was unavailable for postgame interviews after reporting the injury to medical staff. The Steelers had planned to keep four quarterbacks on their 53-player roster, but if Howard has a concussion, he could begin the season on injured reserve. fishroad-app.com

Howard finished the preseason 26-of-39 for 229 yards with two touchdowns and three interceptions. He spent most of last season on injured reserve due to a hand injury in training camp.
