Pittsburgh Steelers RB Jaylen Warren (illness) was added to the injury report Monday, Dec. 15, as questionable with an illness.
| Footballguys view: According to NFL Network's Tom Pelissero, Warren woke up sick and is getting fluids, but the running back is reportedly optimistic about playing tonight. Fantasy investors who've already committed a lineup spot might not have many options here. If possible, move him to the flex; secure a fallback option in tonight's game; and watch the inactive report, which will be released 90 minutes before kickoff. |
Pittsburgh Steelers TE Darnell Washington (concussion) has cleared the concussion protocol and is expected to play in the Week 15 game.
| Footballguys view: This takes some shine off of Pat Freiermuth as a desperation play against the Dolphins on Monday night even though Miami is one of the best fantasy matchups for tight ends. |

Pittsburgh Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers (wrist) fully participated in practice Friday, Dec. 12.
| Footballguys view: Rodgers has broken bones in his non-throwing wrist, so he'll likely remain on the injury report for the rest of the season. That said, he's practicing in full and playing through it. He's only relevant in two-quarterback and superflex leagues, as he hasn't shown much ceiling in the dink-and-dunk Steelers offense. |

Pittsburgh Steelers WR DK Metcalf (abdomen) fully participated in practice Friday, Dec. 12.
| Footballguys view: Back-to-back full practices for Metcalf signal that he should be good to go on Monday night. He's a WR2 against a Dolphins' defense that can give up big plays to receivers. |

Pittsburgh Steelers TE Darnell Washington (concussion) was limited during practice Friday, Dec. 12.
| Footballguys view: Washington will have another chance on Saturday to log a full practice. He's been part of a three-way committee with Pat Freiermuth and Jonnu Smith this year, all of whom are desperation streamers. If Washington can't clear concussion protocol, Freiermuth could offer some sneaky upside against a susceptible Dolphins defense. |

Pittsburgh Steelers WR Calvin Austin (calf) was limited during practice Friday, Dec. 12.
| Footballguys view: Austin wasn't on Thursday's injury report, and a mid-week addition is rarely a good sign. We'll hope for more information soon. Even if he's active, Austin hasn't done much this year, surpassing 50 receiving yards in just two games. He's off the fantasy radar in most leagues. |
Pittsburgh Steelers LB T.J. Watt (lung) is expected to play again in 2025 after suffering a partially collapsed lung.

Pittsburgh Steelers WR DK Metcalf (stomach) could miss some practice time, but he should be able to play in Week 15, according to head coach Mike Tomlin.
| Footballguys view: Metcalf went to a Baltimore hospital after experiencing stomach pain. Tomlin said at his Tuesday press conference that the wideout was injured on a hit early in the game, and the pain got worse despite taking over-the-counter medication during the game. He added that Metcalf is "moving in the right direction." We'll continue to monitor this one as Monday night's game against the Dolphins draws nearer. |

Pittsburgh Steelers WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling reverted back to the practice squad Monday, Dec. 8, after being on the active roster for Week 14.

Pittsburgh Steelers WR DK Metcalf (stomach) was hospitalized after leaving a flight due to stomach pain Sunday, Nov. 7. Out of an abundance of caution, he stayed overnight in a Baltimore hospital and is flying back to Pittsburgh Monday, Dec. 8.
| Footballguys view: Metcalf, who had a season-high 148 yards on seven catches in the win against the Ravens, was sent to a Baltimore-area hospital for evaluation by team medical personnel. We'll continue to monitor this one. The Steelers host the Miami Dolphins on "Monday Night Football" in Week 15, giving Metcalf a longer week before he's scheduled to be back on the field. |

Pittsburgh Steelers WR DK Metcalf caught seven of 12 targets for 148 yards in Week 14 against the Baltimore Ravens.
| Footballguys view: Metcalf was down in the fantasy dumps coming into this week, along with the rest of the Steelers offense, but against the Ravens he was in prime form. Aaron Rodgers gave Metcalf multiple opportunities to make plays downfield on deep sideline throws and Metcalf came through repeatedly to help the Steelers and fantasy teams that were willing to trust him. He won't be on many fantasy benches against the Dolphins next week. |

Pittsburgh Steelers RB Jaylen Warren carried 8 times for 13 yards but added three receptions for 49 yards and a touchdown in Week 14 against the Baltimore Ravens.
| Footballguys view: Warren was ineffective as a runner and gave way to Kenneth Gainwell in the red zone, but the Ravens defense lost him on an all-out blitz play in the second half, so he was still a solid RB2/Flex play. He'll be worth a look as a flex option against the Dolphins next week. |
Pittsburgh Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers threw for a season-high 284 yards and a touchdown on 23 of 34 passing and even ran for touchdown in Week 14 against the Baltimore Ravens.
| Footballguys view: Rodgers was outstanding on sideline deep balls to DK Metcalf and looked about as spry keeping plays alive as we've seen him look in years. He even scored on a sprint to the pylon and posted a very good fantasy game if you had to put him in your 2QB/Superflex lineup. You could do worse than playing him as a QB2/Superflex against the Dolphins next week for the first place Steelers. |

Pittsburgh Steelers QB Aaron Rodgers (wrist) practiced in full on Friday, Dec. 5, and no longer appears on the injury report.
| Footballguys view: Rodgers played through his broken left wrist last week and will do so again in Week 14 against the Ravens. He's deep down the rankings, only offering value in two-quarterback and superflex leagues. |

Pittsburgh Steelers WR DK Metcalf (rest) practiced in full on Friday, Dec. 5, and no longer appears on the injury report.
| Footballguys view: Nothing but a rest day for Metcalf here. His volatility has been frustrating this season, but he's got enough upside that you can use him as a WR3 this week against the Ravens. |
