Shane Steichen said the starting defensive end will miss time, and Jeremy Fowler reported a three-to-four-week absence for a pass rush that has produced just 1.5 sacks from its edge group.
Mike McCarthy said the second-year defensive lineman will miss at least four games, another loss for a Pittsburgh defense already without cornerback Jamel Dean.
Pittsburgh adds a veteran with 65 career starts after trading Joey Porter Jr. and losing Jamel Dean to an ankle injury in Cleveland.
