  Steelers | Jaylen Warren added as questionable    Mon Dec 15, 10:52 AM

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.

  Steelers | Darnell Washington should be available    Sun Dec 14, 11:09 AM

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.

  Steelers | Aaron Rodgers takes part in practice    Fri Dec 12, 06:11 PM

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.

  Steelers | DK Metcalf fully practices    Fri Dec 12, 06:05 PM

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.

  Steelers | Darnell Washington a limited participant    Fri Dec 12, 06:02 PM

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.

  Steelers | Calvin Austin listed as limited    Fri Dec 12, 05:56 PM

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.
