As the Pittsburgh Steelers prepare to face the Cincinnati Bengals, head coach Mike Tomlin provided injury updates on several key players, including WR Kevin Porter Jr., CB Cam Sutton, and LB T.J. Watt. According to Tomlin, Porter Jr. and Watt will miss the game due to their inability to recover from injuries, while Sutton is listed as questionable.
Porter Jr. has been dealing with a hamstring injury that has kept him out of practice for the past week. Despite his best efforts to get back on the field, the injury has not improved enough for him to be cleared for action. Tomlin said that the team is exploring all options to get Porter Jr. back on the field as soon as possible, but for now, he will have to sit out.
Similarly, Watt has been battling a knee injury that has limited his practice time in recent days. While he has been trying to push through the pain, the injury has not responded as well as the team had hoped. Tomlin said that Watt is working hard to get back on the field, but for now, he will have to sit out as well.
As for Sutton, he has been dealing with a shoulder injury that has kept him out of practice for the past few days. While he has been trying to get back on the field, his status for the game is still uncertain. Tomlin said that the team is monitoring Sutton’s progress closely and will make a decision on his status closer to game time.
Overall, the Steelers are dealing with a tough stretch of injuries right now, with several key players missing due to various ailments. While it is certainly a difficult moment for the team, Tomlin remains optimistic that they can overcome these challenges and come out on top. With a strong defense and a talented roster, the Steelers have the talent and depth to succeed even without their star players.
