The Pittsburgh Steelers won't have their star wide receiver on Christmas.
Antonio Brown is out for next Monday's game against the Houston Texans with a "significant contusion" to his lower leg, coach Mike Tomlin said Tuesday.
Tomlin refused to speculate about a timeline for Brown beyond the upcoming game.
Brown leads the NFL with 101 receptions and 1,533 receiving yards. He was ruled out of the Steelers' 27-24 loss to the New England Patriots on Sunday after suffering a calf injury in the first quarter and being taken to a nearby hospital for further evaluation.
