CincinnatiAgainst the Cincinnati Bengals, the Pittsburgh Steelers will be missing five players, but only one will be out because of an injury. Alex Highsmith, a star outside linebacker, will not participate while he heals from a minor ankle sprain. Highsmith is still about a week away from playing again, despite logging two sparse practices this week. He has now missed three games in a row and six games this season after being hurt against the Washington Commanders.
Scotty Miller, a wide receiver, is once again not playing. Miller has been on the outside looking in for shots ever since the deal for Mike Williams and Ben Skowronek’s return. Max Scharping, an offensive lineman who was signed by the Steelers, will not participate and has not yet appeared in a game.
With all of the Steelers’ running backs healthy, running back Jonathan Ward is still on the active roster but missed the third consecutive game. As the backup quarterback, Kyle Allen will only be able to play if Russell Wilson and Justin Fields are both injured.
