Polamalu In Doubt For Sunday

PITTSBURGH (KDKA) -- The injury news for the Steelers could be going from bad to worse as they prepare for Sunday's game against the New York Jets.

A day after finding out that tight end Heath Miller is doubtful because of concussion issues, KDKA has learned that safety Troy Polamalu is having lower leg problems.

The problem is believed to be a calf, which he re-injured while returning his interception for a touchdown.

Polamalu was able to play the rest of the game but he's been unable to practice all week.

If Polamalu isn't able to go, Ryan Mundy or Will Allen would take his spot.

Polamalu has won the AFC Defensive Player of the Week award the last two weeks.
