Just because you're a member of the Pittsburgh Steelers 53-man roster doesn't mean you'll be playing on Sundays, even if healthy.

That's because the NFL limits teams to 46 active players on game day.

So with the context clear, here are the inactive for today's matchup:

Steelers' Inactive players:

  • QB Mason Rudolph
  • P Pressely Harvin
  • OL James Daniels 
  • WR Gunner Olszewski 
  • NT Breiden Fehoko 
  • RB Godwin Igwebuike 

Texans' Inactive players:

  • CB Tavierre Thomas
  • LB Denzel Perryman
  • QB Case Keenum
  • RB Dare Ogunbowale 
  • OL Michael Deiter
  • OT Josh Jones
  • OT Laremy Tunsil 

Observations

There was a common thought the Texans would be without star left tackle Laremy Tunsil, but Houston's inactive report has made it official. 

For Pittsburgh, we knew they would be missing Harvin and Daiels, but given the lack of depth at WR, Olszewski as an inactive is a bit surprising.
