Austin secured one of two targets for six yards during Sunday's 13-6 win over Denver.

Austin saw limited looks in the passing game once again Sunday, but he exited Sunday's Week 2 matchup in the fourth quarter after taking a hard hit that drew an unnecessary roughness call, per Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com. Austin went to the blue medical tent before emerging with his helmet on, but he didn't return to the game. The exact nature of his injury is unclear, and whether he'll be available for next Sunday's Week 3 matchup against the Chargers remains to be seen. Despite Austin's limited work in the passing game, he returned five punts for a total of 27 yards. If he's unable to suit up against the Chargers, Scotty Miller is a candidate to see increased work for Pittsburgh, both on offense and as a punt returner.
