PITTSBURGH — Pittsburgh Steelers guard David DeCastro, a Bellevue High graduate, has multiple leg injuries from Saturday's 38-7 exhibition victory over Buffalo.
DeCastro, an ex-Stanford standout who was the 24th player drafted this year, tore the medial collateral ligament in his right knee and has other damage, ESPN reported, adding a source said the anterior cruciate ligament is intact. DeCastro could miss from three to five months, a source told the Pro Football Talk website.
