Steelers' Practice Report Reveals Disappointing Results For 4 Injured Players

The Pittsburgh Steelers are dealing with a number of players with injuries as they enter a big Monday Night Football game against the Indianapolis Colts. 7 players missed practice on Thursday, four with injuries and three with a veteran's day off. While it's a lighter injury report than some past weeks, a number of key players on the team missed practice on Thursday as the team gets ready to face a Colts squad that is trying to figure out its way under interim head coach, Jeff Saturday.

Center Mason Cole exited last week's game against the Cincinnati Bengals with a foot injury and was seen at the team's facilities in a walking boot on Monday. He had been limited in practice earlier this week, but didn't participate on Thanksgiving Thursday.

Cornerback Ahkello Witherspoon has been dealing with hamstring issues all season and also missed Thursday's practice.

Wide receiver and key special teams contributor, Miles Boykin also suffered an injury in Pittsburgh's loss to the Bengals. He did not practice as he continues to work his way back with an oblique injury.

Backup running back, Jaylen Warren has become a crucial part of the team's ground game this season taking some of the load off starter, Najee Harris. He suffered a hamstring injury in Week 11 and didn't practice on Thursday. The team added Master Teague to the practice squad earlier this week to add depth to the position should Warren be out long-term. Benny Snell Jr. could be in line to get some action with Warren's status in question for Monday.

TJ Watt, Cam Heyward, and Larry Ogunjobi have all dealt with ailments over the course of the season and were given a veteran's day off to rest on Thanksgiving Thursday.
