Switzer exited Wednesday's practice with a quadriceps injury, Ray Fittipaldo of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
The severity of the injury isn't clear, but Switzer can't afford an extended absence with his roster status on shaky ground heading into the regular season. Switzer helped himself by impressing the coaching staff during offseason work, but he'll still face stiff competition for targets out of the slot from Eli Rogers in training camp and the preseason. There could be a path for both players to make the roster if the other depth options behind JuJu Smith-Schuster, Donte Moncrief (finger), James Washington and third-round rookie Diontae Johnson fail to turn heads.
