Starting OL Dan Moore Jr., Trai Turner, DB Arthur Maulet will play for Steelers vs. Chiefs
The Pittsburgh Steelers have a relatively clean bill of health headed into the postseason.
Outside of a questionable designation given to running back Najee Harris, all other players on the 53-man roster were deemed as able to play on the injury report Friday.
Of those who had missed practice time earlier in the week but practiced fully Friday were three starters: left tackle Dan Moore Jr., right guard Trai Turner and nickel defensive back Arthur Maulet. Moore has an ankle injury, Turner a knee ailment and Maulet was in NFL concussion protocol.
It should be noted Moore’s status as a starter perhaps is in question after veteran Joe Haeg filled in admirably in Moore’s place during last week’s win at the Baltimore Ravens. The coaches have been mum this week on any potential lineup changes regarding Moore or at center, where fellow rookie Kendrick Green started all season until J.C. Hassenauer replaced him because of injury in Week 17. Hassenauer again started in Baltimore even though Green was medically cleared to play.
