Pittsburgh Steelers enter their Week 18 prime-time clash against the Baltimore Ravens with a crowded injury report, as ten players are currently being monitored ahead of Sunday night’s kickoff at Acrisure Stadium.
With playoff implications looming, availability decisions—particularly along the offensive line and at quarterback—carry added significance for the 9-7 Steelers.
Isaac Seumalo remains major concern on offensive line
Offensive guard Isaac Seumalo stands out as one of the most concerning names on Pittsburgh’s report. Seumalo did not participate in practice due to a tricep injury and has appeared in just four games this season.
His absence would further test Pittsburgh Steelers’ interior depth against a physical Ravens front, especially in a game expected to be decided in the trenches.
The team has not yet provided a definitive designation, but Seumalo’s lack of practice participation places his availability in doubt heading into Sunday night.
Aaron Rodgers trending toward availability
Quarterback Aaron Rodgers is listed on the injury report with a wrist issue but appears to be trending in a positive direction. Rodgers was a full participant in practice, a strong indicator that he is expected to start against Baltimore.
The veteran signal-caller has been productive throughout the 2025 season, throwing for 3,028 yards with 23 touchdowns and just seven interceptions.
Rodgers’ availability stabilizes Pittsburgh Steelers’ offense as they prepare for a divisional matchup that often comes down to execution and ball control.
Defensive depth largely intact despite listings
Pittsburgh’s defensive unit appears to be in relatively strong shape despite several names appearing on the report. T.J. Watt, who is listed with a lung issue, practiced fully and is expected to play.
Watt has recorded seven sacks and ten tackles for loss this season, remaining a central figure in Steelers’ defensive identity.
Cameron Heyward, listed under non-injury-related rest, also practiced fully, suggesting the designation is precautionary.
Malik Harrison, James Pierre, and Brandin Echols all logged full practice sessions as well, signaling availability in the linebacker and cornerback rotations.
Skill position players trending upward
Wide receivers Calvin Austin III and Ben Skowronek are both listed with injuries—hamstring and hand, respectively—but practiced fully during the week.
Skowronek has appeared in 15 games this season, while Austin’s speed adds an important element to Pittsburgh’s passing attack.
Long snapper Christian Kuntz also practiced fully after dealing with a knee issue, reducing concerns for special teams continuity.
While Pittsburgh Steelers’ injury report is lengthy, most players appear on track to suit up.
