One player who Steelers fans are keeping their eyes on is All-Pro safety Minkah Fitzpatrik. Missing their last four games after leaving early in Week 8, Fitzpatrick returned to practice on Wednesday and as a full participant. Fitzpatrick increased his chances of a Week 13 return as he was once again a full participant on Thursday. Friday saw Fitzpatrick once again a full participant and he is scheduled to make his return on Sunday as he has no injury status.

The other player who missed Sunday’s game due to injury for the Steelers was defensive tackle Montravius Adams with an ankle despite returning to practice last week as a limited participant each day. On Wednesday, Adams was able to return in a full capacity and Thursday brought another full day of practice. Unlike Fitzpatrick, Adams was only limited on Friday and is questionable for Sunday’s game.

Two players outlined in Mike Tomlin’s press conference on Tuesday who could miss some practice time early in the week due to ankle issues were wide receiver Calvin Austin III and quarterback Kenny Pickett. On Wednesday, Kenny Pickett was still able to practice as a full participant while Austin was unable to participate. Thursday saw Pickett as a full participant and Austin was back in a limited fashion. Picket was once again a full participant and is good to go for Sunday. As for Austin, he improved to be a full participant on Friday and has no injury status.

Wide receiver Allen Robinson was a full participant again on Friday after he was given the day off on Wednesday. Cam Heyward was given both Wednesday and Thursday off but returned as a limited participant on Friday. Both players have no injury status for this week and will play Sunday.

There were two new names on Thursday’s report, both of which did not practice. Wide receiver Diontae Johnson was sent home and unable to participate due to illness. Coming back on the injury report after being questionable with a shoulder injury last week was cornerback James Pierre who also was not able to practice. Both Johnson and Pierre returned to practice on Friday and both are good to go to play on Sunday.
