Justin Hunter Headed To Injured Reserve
6 years agoPittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Justin Hunter (shoulder), who was injured on Sunday night against the Chargers, is headed to season-ending Injured Reserve, according to a source. The team will wait a week before re-evaluating him to see if he needs surgery. Hunter had just three catches on 13 targets for 21 yards in five games this year, so he wasn't fantasy relevant. It means that rookie James Washington and Ryan Switzer will battle for the No. 3 duties for the rest of the season. Running back Trey Edmunds was signed from the practice squad to replace Hunter on the roster.
