The Pittsburgh Steelers are holding their final practice of training camp in Latrobe on Wednesday and defensive back Grayland Arnold had to be carted off with an injury.

According to Steelers Depot's Alex Kozora, Arnold suffered a right knee injury during a kickoff drill and left on a cart. There are no further updates at this time.

Of course, the cart has always been synonymous with a serious injury, but teams use it more and more as simply a means of making the trip to the building easier and quicker, so that could be the case here.

Nevertheless, Arnold missing time would be a tough break, as he's been seeing first-team reps in the slot following the team's preseason Week 1 loss to the Houston Texans.

Undrafted free agent Beanie Bishop had been getting the first-team reps in the slot prior to Arnold seeing more time there this week. However, he struggled in his preseason debut, clearing the path for Arnold to get a look.
