Steelers RB Najee Harris (hip) is not listed on the final Week 15 injury report. He was sidelined on Wednesday but put in full practices on Thursday and Friday. Harris will be ready for his usual role vs. the Panthers this weekend.

Steelers QB Kenny Pickett (concussion) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game vs. the Panthers. He was limited in practice this week, but the team evidently doesn't expect him to be cleared by Sunday. QBs Mitchell Trubisky and Mason Rudolph reportedly split reps in practice this week, and HC Mike Tomlin declined to name a starter on Friday. You, of course, shouldn't be messing with the situation in Week 15 fantasy lineups.

Steelers WR Diontae Johnson (hip) did not practice on Thursday. He also sat out last Thursday before playing his usual role in the loss to the Ravens. We're expecting Johnson to be fine for this weekend's game vs. the Panthers, but check back tomorrow for another update on his status.

Steelers TE Pat Freiermuth (foot) missed his 2nd straight practice on Thursday. He said Wednesday that he'll play vs. the Panthers this weekend, but we wouldn't go locking Freiermuth into Week 15 fantasy lineups just yet. Check back tomorrow for another update on his status.

Steelers RB Najee Harris (hip) returned to a full practice on Thursday. He'll be ready for his usual role vs. the Panthers this weekend.

Steelers QB Kenny Pickett (concussion) remained limited in Thursday's practice. We'll get another update on his progress on Friday afternoon.

Steelers RB Najee Harris (hip) did not practice on Wednesday. He sat out the last 2 Wednesdays before playing on Sunday -- but this is a new injury. We'll get another update on Harris tomorrow. Jaylen Warren would be the top fantasy option in Pittsburgh's backfield if Harris misses Sunday's game vs. the Panthers.

Steelers QB Kenny Pickett (concussion) got in a limited practice on Wednesday. That gives him a shot to be cleared in time for Sunday's game vs. the Panthers. QBs Mitchell Trubisky and Mason Rudolph reportedly split reps in Wednesday's practice, so it's unclear who will start this weekend if Pickett can't.

Steelers TE Pat Freiermuth (foot) did not practice on Wednesday. He told ESPN's Brooke Pryor that he hurt his foot on his 1st catch last weekend. He was able to fight through it the rest of that game and expects to play vs. the Panthers on Sunday. We'll keep an eye on Freiermuth over the next few days.

Steelers WR Diontae Johnson remained allergic to the end zone in Sunday's loss to the Ravens. He did lead the team in targets (8), receptions (6) and receiving yards (82). TE Pat Freiermuth followed with 6 targets, catching 3 for 33 yards and a TD. WR George Pickens drew just 3 looks -- tied with 2 others for 4th -- but caught all 3 for 78 yards. Pittsburgh heads to Carolina in Week 15, likely without QB Kenny Pickett (concussion).

Steelers RB Najee Harris carried a mere 12 times for 33 yards in Sunday's loss to the Ravens. He added just 2 receptions for 17 yards among 3 targets. Harris did score from a yard out in the 1st quarter to boost his fantasy total. He continues to lose significant pass-play work to Jaylen Warren, who ran just 2 fewer routes than Harris against Baltimore.

Steelers QB Kenny Pickett exited in the 1st quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Ravens to be checked for a concussion. QB Mitchell Trubisky replaced him. We'll update Pickett's status when we know more.

Update: Pickett has been ruled out. This is his 2nd concussion of the season.

The Steelers have activated K Chris Boswell from IR and released K Matthew Wright. Take note if you’re starting a Steelers kicker vs. the Ravens

Steelers EDGE T.J. Watt has been upgraded for Sunday's game against the Ravens. Originally questionable with a rib issue, he now carries no injury designation. We already expected Watt to play, after he played through a questionable tag for the same injury last week. But this indicates he's healthier. As you set your IDP lineups, though, keep in mind that we haven't gotten the same Watt since he returned from IR. You'll find Watt lower in our Week 14 IDP rankings than he sat the previous few weeks.

Steelers WR Diontae Johnson (hip) has been removed from the Week 14 injury report and will play vs. the Ravens on Sunday. He got in just limited practices on Wednesday and Friday this week, so it's safe to assume that he won't be at 100% tomorrow. Johnson is a weak WR3 play.

Steelers EDGE T.J. Watt (rib) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Ravens. He played through the issue last week, so we'd bet on him doing so again. We'll confirm his status Sunday morning.

Steelers RB Najee Harris (oblique) is not listed on the final Week 14 injury report. He got in a full practice on Friday and should be ready for his usual role vs. the Ravens this weekend.

Steelers WR Diontae Johnson (hip) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Ravens. He got in just limited practices on Wednesday and Friday, so it’s safe to assume that he won’t be at 100% if he plays on Sunday. Johnson, of course, has been a major fantasy disappointment even when healthy this season.
