Here's what the team will look like on the health front:

Steelers Injury Report, Week 11, Friday

Injury Report Observations:

  • Pat Freiermuth: Muth was officially back at practice on Wednesday in a limited capacity. Thursday he was a full participant and after Friday's practice will likely come of the IR on Saturday, even after his questionable listing. 
  • Minkah Fitzpatrick: Still nursing a hamstring injury, DC Teryl Austin sad he expects Minkah to be a true game-time decision against the Browns but following two days of missed practices on Thursday and Friday, he is officially out. 
  • Monatvius Adams: Adams is still working through a bad ankle, one that caused him to miss all of the Packers game, and continued to keep him out of practice on Wednesday. Seeing him as a DNP on both Thursday and Friday was writing on the wall, as he is also out. 
  • Keanu Neal: Neal has been playing in an increased role with Fitzpatrick out, but he went down with an injury of his own late in the Packers game and was also labeled as a true game-time decision by DC Teryl Austin. Seeing Neal as a DNP on Thursday backed that up, with Friday's report confirming that he will be out
  • Diontae Johnson: Johnson suffered a thumb injury vs the Packers which obviously is an issue as a WR. To see him not practice at all on Wednesday was a tad concerning, making his return on Thursday a calming presence for fans. After Friday's full practice he will be good to go. 
  • Cam Heyward: Heyward was also a DNP on Wednesday, but the common thought is that it was just more rest following his return from a groin injury. As for Thursday, he was limited meaning it was likely just a rest day on Wednesday so Friday's findings being similar means he's likely to go.
