The Pittsburgh Steelers are in a rough spot ahead of their next game. 

After losing three starters vs. Arizona on Sunday, the team has a quick turnaround, with a game Thursday night against the New England Patriots. 

We already know that Kenny Pickett will be out following ankle surgery, but with Tuesday being the only real practice of the week, participation levels would be crucial in forecasting availability for Thursday. 

Here's what we found:

Steelers Week 14 Injury Report, Tuesday

Observations:

  • Najee Harris: Harris was a nonparticipant today with a surprise knee injury. Never a good sign and especially not on a short week, we will say what his official designation is come this time tomorrow. 
  • Elandon Roberts: Losing Roberts in-game on Sunday was like "Losing another QB," to quote Mike Tomlin. The last starter the team had an inside linebacker, his absence was felt tremendously and will continue to be if he misses games. Roberts told reporters on Tuesday that he imagines he will be questionable for TNF. His participation status backed that up, with Roberts listed as a limited participant. 
  • Isaac Seumalo: Seumalo was the third Steeler to leave the Cardinals game and not return on Sunday, casting a shadow over his availability on TNF. On Tuesday, Seumalo was a limited participant. 
  • Keeanu Benton: Easily the best player on the Steelers side of the field on Sunday, Benton was listed as limited on Monday's estimated injury report, a surprise no one wanted. On Tuesday, Benton was a limited participant. 
  • Mason Cole: Pittsburgh's starting center may have struggled on Sunday, with multiple bad snaps including one that caused a turnover. Cole took responsibility however, and was also a late addition to the injury report on Monday with a neck injury. On Tuesday, Cole was a limited participant.
