Steelers Week 12 Injury Update

  • Minkah Fitzpatrick: The Pro Bowl safety has missed the last three games with a hamstring injury but wasn't put on the injured reserve, that means Pittsburgh's medical staff obviously believed that he could be back in time for this Sunday's game against the Bengals. Having yet to even practice since the injury, Coach Tomlin added that: "Minkah is working hard to be apart of this week's game plan, with his participation later in the week being pivotal to his availability."
  • Montavius Adams: Pittsburgh's starting nose tackle also hasn't played nor practiced in two weeks. Coach Tomlin added that Adams: "Is also working hard to get back, and will be assessed later in the week."
