Latest Injury Report News and Updates
Steelers fans were left holding their breath after star edge-rusher T.J. Watt left Sunday’s game against the Philadelphia Eagles with an ankle injury. Watt was able to return to practice on Wednesday and logged a full practice on Thursday. He is good to go for Saturday with no game designation — huge news and a huge sigh of relief for Steelers fans.
Wide receiver George Pickens continues to be hampered by his hamstring injury and will miss his third straight game. It’s possible he returns in Week 17 against the Kansas City Chiefs on Christmas or, if not then, in Week 18 against the Cincinnati Bengals. DB DeShon Elliott is also out with a hamstring injury.
CB Donte Jackson (back) and DT Larry Ogunjobi (groin) are listed as questionable.
For the Ravens, they initially listed two players as out for Saturday, but one is now off the team. Wide receiver Diontae Johnson did not practice all week due to personal reasons, and his short yet tumultuous time with the Ravens came to an end on Friday as the team waived him.
Cornerback Jalyn Armour-Davis was the other player initially ruled out after missing practice all week with a hamstring injury. The Ravens have also downgraded wide receiver Nelson Agholor to out with a concussion. He was initially listed as questionable after not practicing all week.
WR Rashod Bateman (foot), OL Daniel Faalele (knee), and OLB Odafe Oweh (ankle) are listed as questionable.
