Thompson suffered minor injuries, but is OK and with the team, per Pelissero.
The 28-year-old was already on injured reserve after suffering a hamstring injury on Sept. 10.
“We are aware of a situation involving Skylar Thompson on Friday night in Dublin,” a Steelers spokesman told Pelissero. “We will have no further comment at this time as we are working with NFL security to gather more information regarding the incident.”
Thompson, a Kansas State product, has played 10 games over three seasons in the NFL, all with the Dolphins. He also started a 2022 playoff game for Miami, throwing for 220 yards and a touchdown with two interceptions in a loss at Buffalo.
The Steelers and Vikings face each other Sunday morning in the NFL’s inaugural Dublin game as part of an expanded international schedule.
