Steelers beat Panthers 19-10 in preseason finale, but lose 1st-round pick Harmon to knee injury

Skylar Thompson completed 11 of 13 passes for 152 yards including a 24-yard touchdown strike to Lance McCutcheon, rookie Ben Sauls kicked four field goals and the Pittsburgh Steelers beat the Carolina Panthers 19-10 on Thursday night in the preseason finale. The Steelers played a handful of starters on both sides of the ball, while the Panthers rested all of theirs and several top reserves. Getting some players extra preseason reps may have backfired on Steelers coach Mike Tomlin as defensive end Derrick Harmon, the team's first-round draft pick, was carted to the locker room with a knee injury in the first half.
