Wormley will need season-ending surgery to repair a knee injury suffered in Sunday's win over the Ravens, Dale Lolley of the Steelers' official site reports. Wormley's exact injury is still unknown, but it's clear whatever it was is significant enough to end his season. His absence for the remainder of the 2022 campaign is certainly a blow the Steelers' depth on the defensive line moving forward. He'll now focus on being healthy for next year, while Isaiahh Loudermilk and DeMarvin Leal will likely play increased roles in the finals weeks of the season.

The Steelers activated Wormley (illness) from the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday. Wormley tested positive for COVID-19 on Friday and missed Monday's win over the Browns as a result. However, he'll now return to practice and will likely be available Sunday against the Ravens.

Wormley (groin) was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Friday after testing positive for the virus. Wormley, who is dealing with a groin injury, now has another hurdle clear in order to be available for Monday's game against the Browns. He's totaled 20 tackles (13 solo) and 4.5 sacks across his last five appearances, so his potential absence would be a big blow to Pittsburgh's defense.

Wormley totaled five tackles (three solo) and 2.5 sacks in Sunday's 20-19 win over the Ravens. Wormley matched his highest total of the season in the tackle column during Sunday's narrow win, and he effectively pressured quarterback Lamar Jackson throughout the game. Across six games since the Steelers' Week 7 bye, the 28-year-old has logged 21 tackles (12 solo) and 4.5 sacks.

The Steelers signed Wormley to a two-year contract Thursday, Mark Kaboly of The Athletic reports. Wormley handled a reserve role in Pittsburgh across 13 games last season, averaging just 11.5 defensive snaps per game. He stands to handle a similar role going forward, which doesn't bode well for his chances of emerging on the IDP fantasy radar.
