The Indianapolis Colts will be without one of their starting edge rushers when they take the field at Acrisure Stadium to take on the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday.

According to ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler, Arden Key is expected to miss 3-4 weeks with a hamstring injury. The ninth-year professional has eight combined tackles, three quarterback hits and half of a sack to this point this season.

Key would’ve been battling with Steelers left tackle Troy Fautanu during the Week 5 matchup. Pro Football Focus has tabbed Fautanu with a 67.2 overall grade, 30th out of 69 offensive tackles. According to the same database, he’s allowed 11 total pressure in pass protection and one sack.

The Steelers moved Fautanu to left tackle in the offseason, and at first started Dylan Cook on the right side. Rookie first-round draft pick Max Iheanachor has since taken over for Cook.

Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers has been sacked 13 times this season, tied with Tampa Bay’s Baker Mayfield for the most in the league. Pittsburgh will want to keep its veteran signal-caller — the oldest active player in the NFL — upright as much as possible.
