Steelers Rule Out Multiple Players for Eagles Game

The Pittsburgh Steelers will be without key players George Pickens, DeShon Elliott, and Larry Ogunjobi for their upcoming game against the Philadelphia Eagles. Pickens is sidelined due to a grade 2 hamstring strain, marking his second consecutive missed game, while Elliott is ruled out due to hamstring tightness after an impressive performance against the Browns. Ogunjobi's absence follows a groin injury suffered during the same game, and he may miss multiple weeks. With these injuries, the Steelers will rely on backup players like Damontae Kazee and Dean Lowry to fill significant roles on defense. Additionally, offensive tackle Calvin Anderson is listed as questionable with a groin injury. The Steelers' defensive strategy may shift, as Minkah Fitzpatrick is expected to play closer to the line of scrimmage.
