Steelers Sign Jonathan Ward, Place C.J. Henderson on Injured Reserve

The Pittsburgh Steelers have signed running back Jonathan Ward to their active roster ahead of their Week 11 game against the Baltimore Ravens, while cornerback C.J. Henderson has been placed on injured reserve due to a neck injury. This roster move raises concerns regarding the availability of running back Jaylen Warren, who is listed as questionable with a back issue. Ward has appeared in four games this season, rushing for 22 yards on five carries, and will likely serve as depth behind Najee Harris and Cordarrelle Patterson. Henderson’s injury further depletes the Steelers' cornerback depth, as he has yet to play for the team this season after joining the practice squad. The Steelers are facing significant injury challenges that could impact their performance in the crucial divisional matchup against Baltimore. The team is looking to solidify their roster as they navigate these injury issues.
