ESPN - Steelers wide receiver Limas Sweed injured his left Achilles tendon during the team's three-day minicamp this weekend.

Pittsburgh coach Mike Tomlin believes that the injury could be serious.

Sweed was hurt during a routine passing drill on Sunday and was taken off the Steelers' indoor practice field on a cart.

If his Achilles is ruptured, he'll likely miss the season.


Taken off of the Wiretap.

It's unfortunate, but this young man is just never going to make it in the NFL.

Yea I doubt he would have even made the team this year if he wasn't hurt. Sanders and Antwaan can fill Holmes role better than Limas.
