The Pittsburgh Steelers prepare to enter the field before an NFL football game against the Las Vegas Raiders Sunday, Sept. 24, 2023, in Las Vegas.

As they prepare to face a team dealing with numerous injuries on the offensive line, the Pittsburgh Steelers are dealing with issues of their own up front.

Three members of the offensive line did not practice Wednesday, including two with injuries. Right guard James Daniels (groin) and right tackle Chuks Okorafor (elbow) missed practice, and left guard Isaac Seumalo was given the day off.

The Steelers have two more days of preparation to get the line healthy before they face the Houston Texans at NRG Stadium on Sunday. The Texans’ line has been decimated by injuries in the early stages of this season and have started former Steelers interior lineman Kendrick Green at guard.

Also missing practice for the Steelers because of injury were punter Pressley Harvin (hamstring), wide receiver Allen Robinson (ankle), tight end/fullback Connor Heyward (ankle) and defensive tackle Larry Ogunjobi (foot). Cornerback Patrick Peterson was given the day off.

Safety Miles Killebrew was the only player whose participation was limited. Wide receiver Gunner Olszewski, who did not play against Las Vegas because of a concussion, was a full practice participant.

Among the players who did not practice Wednesday for the Texans were tackles Josh Jones (hand) and Laremy Tunsil (knee). Tackle George Fant and guard Shaq Mason were limited.
