Darrell Taylor was down for several minutes before being carted off the field at Heinz Field in Pittsburgh on Sunday night.

The Steelers had a second-and-one with just over three minutes left in the game, which was tied at 17. The Steelers handed the ball to Najee Harris, who rushed for a first down.

Taylor was one of three Seahawks who helped made the tackle. He appeared to run into a teammate while making the tackle and fell to the ground immediately.
