Tuesday’s report is an estimation as the Steelers held a walk-through**

The Steelers have two players at the safety position who have missed the last two games in Minkah Fitzpatrick and Trenton Thompson. While Thompson return to practice early last week, he was unable to go on Sunday while Fitzpatrick did not take the practice field. On Tuesday, Thompson was listed as a limited participant while Fitzpatrick was estimated to have not been able to practice.

Another key player who missed Sunday’s game due to injury was inside linebacker Elandon Roberts. Suffering a pectoral injury, Roberts said last week not to rule him out for returning against the Ravens. To start the week, Roberts was estimated to have not been able to participate.

Leaving the game briefly on Sunday, T.J. Watt is a player who was likely to land on the injury report this week but is not expected to miss Saturday’s game. On Tuesday, Watt was not even one of the players listed on the estimated report.

One player whose name appears in the list but was a full participant is quarterback Kenny Pickett. Coming back from a high ankle sprain, Pickett is slated to be the backup in Baltimore on Saturday.

The other three players who were listed as limited on Tuesday are names that have been on the injury report recently. Running back Najee Harris (knee), guard Isaac Seumalo (shoulder), and defensive tackle Cam Heyward (groin) were all limited on Tuesday.
