The Pittsburgh Steelers have officially started 2024 NFL season following an off day on Tuesday. As the Steelers took the practice field for their first official day of preparation for the Atlanta Falcons, there were two players who did not participate while four were limited. In the first injury report of the week courtesy of the Steelers PR Department, six names appear on the list.

Pittsburgh Steelers Participation/Injury Report, Week 1

Wednesday, September 4

No. 10 WR Roman Wilson (Ankle) – Limited
No. 27 CB Cory Trice Jr. (Groin) – Limited
No. 30 RB Jaylen Warren (Hamstring) – Limited
No. 73 G Isaac Seumalo (Pectoral) – DNP
No. 76 OT Troy Fautanu (Knee) – Limited
No. 91 DT Logan Lee (Calf) – DNP

On Tuesday, Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin ruled out guard Isaac Seumalo with his pectoral injury as he described him as being “week-to-week.” As expected, Seumalo did not participate in practice on Wednesday.

Rookie defensive lineman Logan Lee was the other player who did not participate on Wednesday. Lee missed the Steelers final preseason game with what is now known to be a calf injury.

After missing all of the preseason, rookie wide receiver Roman Wilson was limited on Wednesday with an ankle injury. Wilson participating in practice at all is a positive sign, but his availability for Sunday is in the air.

Injured in the first preseason game, rookie first-round draft picks Troy Fautanu was limited  on Wednesday with his knee injury despite getting in his most work in weeks.

The other two limited players on the injury report were running back Jaylen Warren with a hamstring injury and cornerback Cory Trice with a groin injury. Both players are working their way back and their progression through the week will ultimately determine their availability for Week 1.
