Washington (shoulder) won't suit up against the Chargers on Sunday and is considered week-to-week, Gerry Dulac of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
According to Chris Adamski of TribLive.com, Washington was spotted without his shoulder in a sling Wednesday, but the second-year wideout's injury is evidently severe enough to force at least one missed game. The Steelers will benefit from a bye week after Sunday's tilt, which opens up the possibility that Washington might not miss any time beyond the Chargers game. In any case, Johnny Holton, Ryan Switzer and Donte Moncrief could all see increased opportunities as long as Washington remains sidelined.
