PITTSBURGH (KDKA) -- Steelers wide receiver Chase Claypool was helped off the field during Tuesday's practice.
KDKA's Rich Walsh reports Claypool went to the ground before being helped off by quarterback Ben Roethlisberger and tight end Eric Ebron.
ESPN's Brooke Pryor tweeted that it "looks lower body," and the second-year player did not put any weight on the apparent injury.
After practice, head coach Mike Tomlin said Claypool is being evaluated.
NFL Network's Mike Garafolo reports Claypool "did not suffer a significant injury in practice today, sources say. Major sigh of relief for Pittsburgh. We'll see what the resulting diagnosis is but definite relief after how it looked."
ESPN's Jeremy Fowler reports that the injury is "considered minor."
"Source said Steelers WR Chase Claypool should be fine, what he suffered in practice considered minor. Claypool went down in practice and was helped off."
Hours after practice, Claypool took to Twitter.
"All is well," he tweeted.
