Mike Adams was hospitalized for stab wounds during an apparent robbert attempt on the South Side.
Adams is a second-year right tackle for the Pittsburgh Steelers out of Ohio State.
Adams was a second round pick in 2012 and was chosen as the Steelers' rookie of the year.
“We are aware of the situation regarding Mike Adams being stabbed this morning,” Kevin Colbert said in a statement issued by the team. “We are in direct communication with both Mike and his family. Mike is expected to make a full recovery.”
