Enters concussion protocol
Pierre is in concussion protocol and will be limited in practice to start the week, Missi Matthews of the Steelers' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Pierre appears to have suffered a concussion in Sunday's 26-7 loss to the Bills, and he will have to clear the league's concussion protocol to be available for the team's divisional showdown with the Ravens in Week 14. After Pierre's early exit Sunday, Asante Samuel made his Steelers debut and played 28 defensive snaps to finish out the game. The newly signed corner will likely start for the Steelers on Sunday if Pierre has not cleared concussion protocol.

Pierre took a step forward during the 2021 season, logging 47 tackles (37 solo), an interception, three forced fumbles and four pass defenses over 17 games. He saw inconsistent playing time on defense early in the year but played exclusively on special teams over the final five weeks of the regular season. He should have the chance to compete for additional defensive snaps in 2022 after the Steelers lost several cornerbacks during the offseason.
