Impact Wormley sustained a significant knee injury in the Steelers' Week 14 loss to the Ravens, which has now been confirmed to have been a torn ACL according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. The defensive end will now shift his focus to rehabbing the injury and look to be ready for the 2023 campaign.
