Everyone comes into Week 2 with a few more lumps and bruises as players get acclimated to the riggors of an NFL regular season. The Steelers and Broncos are no different, each dealing with a few players on the injury report throughout the week.
Let's check out the full inactives list for both teams ahead of today's matchup.
Full Inactives List for the Steelers
Player | Status |
|---|---|
Isaac Seumalo | Out - Pectoral |
Russell Wilson | Inactive - Calf |
Roman Wilson | Out - Ankle |
Jalen Elliot | Inactive |
Terrell Edmunds | Inactive |
Dean Lowry | Inactive |
Offensive Impacts
Once again, Russell Wilson will be inactive but dressed as the team's emergency third quarterback. Justin Fields gets the reigns once again as fans hope to see the team's first touchdown of the season.
Likewise, Spencer Anderson will resume duties at left guard in place of Isaac Seumalo.
Fans will also have to await the debut of rookie second-round pick wide receiver Roman Wilson as he gets closer to 100% with an ankle injury.
Defensive Impacts
Terrell Edmunds wasn't expected to suit up having only been back in the building for a few days. Otherwise, the Steelers defense is at full strength.
Broncos Full Inactive List
Player | Status |
|---|---|
Devaughn Vele | Out - Ribs |
Zach Wilson | Inactive |
Blake Watson | Inactive |
Kris Abrams-Draine | Inactive |
Frank Crum | Inactive |
Lucas Krull | Inactive |
Eyioma Uwazurike | Inactive |
What to Know
The Denver Broncos are relatively healthy as Vele was the only constant on the Broncos' injury report throughout the week and the remaining inactives are typical healthy scratches. Vele isn't a significant weapon in the Denver offense, so the Steelers should approach as if the Broncos were at full strength.
