Steelers DL Chris Wormley (knee) will undergo surgery and miss the remainder of the season.

He'll likely head to injured reserve sometime this week. Wormley has been a solid run-downs defender for the Steelers, with a 78.2 run defense rating per PFF and 29 tackles in 13 games. He had seven sacks last season. Wormley will be a free agent after the season and, rehabbing a torn ACL, may not be a priority for anyone early in free agency.

Acquired from the Ravens last March, Wormley contributed 148 snaps his first season in Pittsburgh, notching a sack in Week 17 when the Steelers gave more playing time to their backups. Headed into his age-28 campaign, Wormley will remain a lightly-used role player even after the Steelers lost a decent amount of defensive talent in free agency.

Ravens traded DL Chris Wormley and a 2021 seventh-round pick to the Steelers for a 2021 fifth-round pick.

Wormley has started 15 games since the Ravens drafted him in the third round of the 2017 draft. He's failed to make too much of a difference as a pass rusher, totaling just 2.5 sacks and nine QB hits along the way. Still, Wormley will provide solid depth to a Steelers front seven that struggled to pressure the QB in 2019 without sending numerous blitzers.

Wormley recorded 33 tackles (17 solo), 1.5 sacks and two defended passes across 16 regular-season contests in 2019.

Wormley notched career-high numbers cross the board in 2019, though his lack of upside as a pass rusher nonetheless kept him off the IDP radar. The 2017 third-round pick will look to take another step forward when the 2020 season rolls around.
