Pittsburgh Steelers injury report: Green Bay has a long list of questionables

The Pittsburgh Steelers will be banged up Sunday against the Packers, but Green Bay may be missing a few more players.

Even though the Steelers will be without three players, Green Bay could be looking at multiple injuries, especially on the defensive end. While JuJu Smith-Schuster and Vance McDonald hurt Pittsburgh’s offense, they could take advantage of missing stars on the Packers’ defense to even out the field.

With injuries to defensive stars, Clay Matthews and Morgan Burnett, Green Bay is pretty banged up heading into Heinz Field. If these guys aren’t able to go Sunday, the Packers could be looking at a long game through the air.

Pittsburgh is also dealing with injuries, though. Besides Smith-Schuster and McDonald on the offensive end, they’ll be without Joe Haden for the next four or so weeks and could be missing safety, Mike Mitchell, again in Week 12.

Although Robert Golden, Mike Hilton and Coty Sensabaugh stepped up big in Week 11, Pittsburgh is hoping to have their starters back on the field as soon as possible. With the activation of Cameron Sutton this week, they could be preparing for an extended period of time without either defensive back in the starting lineup.
