Chris Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast, and is joined by Dr. Kerina Maharaja, doctor of physical therapy.

The Pittsburgh Steelers might not have lost T.J. Watt for the season due to a torn pec injury. Reports suggest the tear might be partial, and that could mean he's back anywhere between 4-6 weeks. It also appears Najee Harris' injury might not keep him out for long either, as reports suggest he could even play for the Steelers against the Patriots in week 2. We have Dr. Kerina Maharaja on to explain the possibilities for their return.

Also, after a full film watch, we have our full week 1 grades for the Steelers' win over the Bengals. Minkah Fitzpatrick, T.J. Watt and Alex Highsmith lead the way with their elite performances, and the all-22 film review showed the Steelers had several really good contributors who played solid for the entire game, including Cameron Sutton, Devin Bush, Myles Jack, and Pat Freiermuth.
