Steelers' B.J. Finney: Placed on IR

Finney had been playing through a back injury for more than a month, but he apparently suffered a setback during Week 13 and was held out the following contest. The 30-year-old offensive lineman will miss at least three weeks after being placed on injured reserve, and Kendrick Green is expected to fill in at center during his absence.

Steelers' B.J. Finney: Will be evaluated
Finney's back injury is being evaluated after the Steelers' 20-19 win over the Ravens, according to head coach Mike Tomlin, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.
Finney left early Sunday with the injury. He dealt with a back issue earlier this season, but it's not known whether this a continuation of the same or something new. The Steelers have a short week ahead as they travel to Minnesota to play Thursday, which may make it more difficult for Finney to recover in time. If he is unable to go, Kendrick Green will likely get the nod to start at center.
