Acrisure Stadium grass concerns linger, ahead of Colts-Steelers

The field conditions at Acrisure Stadium remain under scrutiny as it appears to be a mix of grass and sand ahead of the Pittsburgh Steelers' game against the Indianapolis Colts. This follows concerns raised after the Week 6 home game against the Cleveland Browns, leading to the installation of new sod. Pittsburgh quarterback Aaron Rodgers previously commented that the field was in "slightly better shape" after the Week 8 game against the Packers. The ongoing issues have raised safety concerns after Miles Killebrew sustained a season-ending knee injury on the field, and kicker Chris Boswell missed a field goal due to the slippery surface. Upcoming games, including a series of Saturday-Sunday matchups for Pitt and the Steelers, increase the urgency to address the field conditions. Players' safety remains a priority, and there are discussions about potential actions, including a wildcat strike, to ensure safer playing conditions.
