Pittsburgh Steelers: Projected inactives for Week 6
By Edward Hunt
The Pittsburgh Steelers look like they are going to be relatively healthy for their game against the Chiefs at Arrowhead Stadium on Sunday.
Ramon Foster is questionable for Sunday’s game, but with him unable to practice all week with a chest injury, I will assume he will not be playing. BJ Finney will probably play left guard for the Steelers and Matt Feiler will likely get a helmet to add to the Steelers gameday depth on the offensive line.
Joshua Dobbs will be inactive again being third on the depth chart. He will likely be here as long as Ben Roethlisberger and Landry Jones are healthy.
Eli Rogers will again probably be inactive. He has been benched the past two weeks. He lost the slot job to Juju Smith-Schuster and lost the punt return job when he fumbled a punt. Antonio Brown will probably be the Steelers punt returner going forward.
Jerald Hawkins will probably be inactive for the game Sunday. He is the Steelers ninth lineman and his job is to develop so that someday he can be a contributor on the offensive line.
Dan McCullers is the Steelers sixth defensive lineman and that means he will be on the inactive list again. The Steelers are relatively healthy on the defensive line.
Brian Allen will be inactive as well as he is the Steelers sixth corner. It is really Allen’s job to develop as a corner so that he can help them in the future. He is not a core special teamer at this point in his career.

Arthur Moats will probably be the odd man out of the Steelers linebackers. James Harrison is said to be playing Sunday and that means they will have to sit another one of their linebackers. Arthur Moats is probably the weakest special teamer of the bunch other than James Harrison who doesn’t play special teams.
