Friday was a chilly, rainy day, but the Steelers worked outside in the elements in their final preparation for Sunday's game against the Baltimore Ravens, a huge AFC North matchup. The Steelers go into the game as the NFL's only undefeated team at 6-0, while the Ravens have been rolling and are 5-1.
With a physical game expected, the Steelers are going to need as many healthy players as possible, and a few are definitely on their way back, while others are a question mark still for this week.
Defensive lineman Chris Wormley, who was acquired by the Steelers via a trade with the Ravens this offseason, suffered a knee injury against the Tennessee Titans last week and has been ruled out after missing practice all week.
Another player who was injured against the Titans and will miss Sunday's game is safety Jordan Dangerfield (quadriceps), who sat out practice all week. In addition, linebacker Ulysees Gilbert (back) didn't practice on Thursday or Friday and has been ruled out at a position already depleted with the loss of Devin Bush for the season.
Mike Hilton (shoulder) and Derek Watt (hamstring) are both listed as questionable for Sunday. They were both limited in practice on Friday.
There is good news on the injury side, though. Diontae Johnson (toe), JuJu Smith-Schuster (knee), Eric Ebron (elbow), Maurkice Pouncey (elbow) and Alejandro Villanueva (elbow) all practiced again on Friday and aren't on the status report.
The full injury/status report is below.
