Pouncey carted off with left ankle injury
The only “good” news for the Packers is having Aaron Rodgers means you’re going to be competitive as long as he’s healthy. He hobbled off the field and later walked to the locker room without a noticeable limp.

Steelers fans remember two seasons ago when Pouncey injured his knee in the first quarter of the opening game against the Tennessee Titans and was lost for the season.
The Steelers also removed quarterback Bruce Gradkowski in the second quarter after he tried to recover a low shotgun snap from Chris Hubbard, their No. 1 backup guard who added center duties just the past week. A sack by Julius Peppers stopped Pittsburgh from converting for the third time.
Butler has not been happy with the tackling that has been spotty through the first two preseason games.
On the other side of the ball, Ben Roethlisberger played three series and had a solid preseason outing.
While Packers coach Mike McCarthy stressed the defending NFC North champions “will look for good news” when Nelson is re-evaluated in Green Bay on Monday, quarterback Aaron Rodgers’ expressed equal parts frustration and mystification.
It was one of the most monumental collapses in NFL history as Seattle somehow pulled out a 28-22 overtime victory in the NFC championship game.
The Packers scored off another Steelers turnover, with Mason Crosby connecting on a 55-yard field goal the ensuing drive. Green Bay tacked on another two points after a successful try.
For Pittsburgh, they are looking to get their first preseason win of the season. Alonzo Harris backed up Lacy with an additional 41 yards including a touchdown from 25 yards out.
The undrafted free-agent defensive back out of Liberty University made an impression over the final days of training camp in Latrobe. The Steelers couldn’t convert on its two-point conversion, keep the Packers in front, 19-18.
Jones then led them to another touchdown, throwing a 20-yard pass to Shakim Phillips, who leaped over cornerback Tay Glover-Wright in the back right corner of the end zone to make the catch. Watch him in coverage and off the frequent inside blitzes the Steelers have run so far, but especially watch him approach Lacy in the running game.

If the Packers weren’t focused enough for 2015, their first two games are at Chicago against the hated Bears and then the big revenge rematch in Lambeau with the Seahawks.
