When playing the Packers, the Pittsburgh Steelers’ defence will be without two starters.
Pittsboro, PA When the Pittsburgh Steelers play the Green Bay Packers at Acrisure Stadium this week, they will be missing two key members of their starting defence.
Safety Minkah Fitzpatrick and defensive lineman Montravius Adams had already been ruled out due to injuries. Mason Rudolph, the quarterback, defensive tackle Breiden Fohoko, running back Godwin Igwebuike, cornerback Darius Rush, and offensive lineman Dylan Cook were all healthy scratches.
Rudolph is still in his uniform, but he is not allowed to play unless the Steelers have used up every other quarterback option.
Despite having injury designations through the end of the week and being limited at various points during the week, defensive lineman Cameron Heyward and linebacker Elandon Roberts will play against Green Bay. This week, outside linebacker Nick Herbig also struggled with a calf injury. Despite this, he is healthy and ready for action on game day.
