The Pittsburgh Steelers seemingly dodged a bullet after a scary-looking injury to pass rusher Alex Highsmith.
That being said, he was quickly ruled out for this week's massive game against the Baltimore Ravens.
But that news is much more palatable when you see that for the first time since injuring his hamstring, second-year pass rusher Nick Herbig practiced in a full capacity.
That and more in Wednesday's injury report:

Observations
- Van Jefferson: A surprise addition, we'll see if this was a precautionary hold out, or if the WR is in jeopardy of not playing against the Ravens
- Najee Harris: After seeming to be in serious pain agsisnt the Commanders, Harris returned to the game and HC Mike Tomlin said on Tuesday that he expects him to play
- Donte Jackson: Unlike Najee Harris, Jackson did not return against the Commanders and will need to be monitored closely
- Nick Herbig: The talented second-year pass rusher is set to return against the Ravens as he splits time with newly acquired pass rusher Preston Smith
- Alex Highsmith: As expected, no participation for Highsmith as he was already ruled out by HC Mike Tomlin on Tuesday
- MyCole Pruitt: Pruitt continues to be featured on the injury report with his knee injury but he has played in recent weeks
