Steelers Injury Report: No players ruled out for Monday’s game

The Pittsburgh Steelers held their final practice of the week on Saturday. According to the Steelers PR Department, no players have been ruled out for Monday with three players listed as questionable.

For the first time since Week 1, no Steelers have been ruled out before the game. With Roosevelt Nix missing the last five games, he is one of several players returning to the Steelers after missing time.

One of the players who does carry an injury status for Monday is Mark Barron who is continuing to battle a hamstring injury. After participating in a limited fashion Friday, Barron was full on Saturday and is questionable for Monday night’s game.

A player whose status was believed to be in jeopardy at the beginning of the week was T.J. Watt. But after two straight days as a full participant at practice, Watt does not carry an injury status.

Another questionable player for the week is Jaylen Samuels, who on Monday will be three weeks removed from his knee surgery. Samuels practiced fully on Friday and Saturday and is listed as questionable.

The only player who was a limited for the Steelers on Saturday was a new addition to the injury report. Rookie Ulysees Gilbert III was limited with a back injury and is listed as questionable for Monday.

While many people say the bye week should be used to get players healthy, the Steelers took it to a new level. With six players ruled out well ahead of time in Week 6 and at least four more unable to finish the game, injuries are not nearly as large of a factor going into Week 8 other than the players placed on injured reserve.
