Per ABC post game coverage, just heard it's believed TJ has a grade III MCL sprain and wanted to come back into the game but the training staff wouldn't allow it.
Solid draft so far with most needs filled but as we know you can't always fill every need in the draft. We need to address slot corner so how do we address that hole. Trade, wait for roster cuts and grab a FA? Or maybe use one of our DB's currently on the roster, didn't Wallace play some slot in...
The Steelers activated receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster from the Reserve/Injured List ahead of Sunday's Wild Card Round game against the Kansas City Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium.
The team also released punter Corliss Waitman...
For a solid performance today. Rats were stacking the line making our running game more difficult, but they opened holes and gave Ben time to make the big plays he needed to make during critical drives today.
The way I see it you root for the Texans. They have a better conference record so we don't want to see them slip back into competition for the 6th seed, plus they can knock the Titans down a bit. That would give us a chance to wrap up a playoff spot if we win tonight and beat the Jets next week.
Won't be an extended absence as per Ian Rapoport.

Ben Roethlisberger’s $5 million roster bonus kicks in today. No new deal imminent as of late morning but fluid situation. Team can pay out bonus over course of regular season.

Hope the delay doesn't torpedo any possible FA signings.
"There is real competition for Antonio Brown on the trade market, and I expect the Steelers to trade him as early as this week—but almost certainly before the March 17 deadline to pay Brown a $2.5 million roster bonus.
My gut feeling is the Steelers will get the first-round pick they’ve been...

Colbert on potential Brown trade: “By no means will we make a trade that’s not beneficial to the organization. We’re not going to give a discount on the trade market, and we’re not going to release him. “
