The Pittsburgh Steelers will avoid a clash with Russell Wilson next Sunday when they host the Seattle Seahawks. The Pro Bowl quarterback is expected to miss at least a month with a finger injury, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler.
Wilson was injured during the Seahawks' Thursday night game against the Los Angeles Rams. He suffered a ruptured middle-finger tendon and is expected to need surgery.

The Steelers host the Seahawks for Sunday Night Football in Week 6. They'll be Smith's first opponent as a starter since 2017.
