The first injury update of the week came out on Tuesday for the Pittsburgh Steelers, and unfortunately, the news isn’t great. It’s still early in the week, so of course, this situation is fluid, but as of now the Steelers look like they could be a bit short-handed when they take on the New York Jets on Sunday.

“Marcus Gilbert (ankle) is highly questionable. Ryan Harris (lower leg) is questionable. Cody Wallace (knee) will be out. Eli Rogers (turf toe) will be out. Senquez Golson (foot) will be out. Rosie Nix (back) will continue to walk the path that we’ve walked with him; we’ll evaluate his participation (in practice) and let that be our guide as he comes back from his injury. Some more in-game injuries: Jarvis Jones (ankle) – we’ll see how his week progresses. Anthony Chickillo (knee) – the same thing. Ramon Foster (chest) missed last week but he has a chance this week, and like some of these other cases, his practice participation will be our guide. The same for Robert Golden (hamstring) and Ryan Shazier (knee). Darrius Heyward-Bey sustained a shoulder injury in the game, He’s probably going to be available to us, but the injury probably is going to affect his availability from a preparation standpoint here at the early stages of the week.”

It would be unfortunate if the Steelers are without their starting right tackle and his only viable backup. However, there is some good news. Safety Sean Davis dressed last Sunday but did not play. However, it seems that he is healthy and will be ready to go against the Jets.

We will watch closely how practice participation goes for all of these players and keep you up to date on their status all the way up to kickoff.
