Critical Day for Steelers Injured Players

The Pittsburgh Steelers are closely monitoring several crucial injuries as they conclude their preparations for Week 14 against the New England Patriots. This week, guard Isaac Seumalo (shoulder) and inside linebacker Elandon Roberts (groin) were the notable names on the injury report.

The initial practice report introduced rookie Keeanu Benton (oblique) and center Mason Cole (neck) as new additions. On the second day, running back Najee Harris was absent from practice due to a knee injury. As the team enters the final day of preparations, the status of these key injuries will be determined.

According to Roberts, today’s session will be a full practice, in contrast to yesterday’s walkthrough, making it the sole comprehensive practice before facing the Patriots. If everything goes well, all key players may be available for Week 14. However, if not, Nate Herbig and Spencer Anderson could step into starting roles on the offensive line, with Jaylen Warren taking over at running back. In the event that Roberts is inactive on game day, Mykal Walker and Blake Martinez are likely candidates to fill the void.
