3 linebackers listed on Steelers' injury report, but Devin Bush practiced as full participant
The Pittsburgh Steelers listed three of their four starting linebackers on the injury report Wednesday, but the good news is Devin Bush (groin) was a full participant at practice and T.J. Watt (groin) also practiced, but in a limited capacity.
Alex Highsmith (groin) was one of five Steelers who did not participate in the first full day of drills as the team prepared to meet the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday at Heinz Field.
Also not practicing were quarterback Ben Roethlisberger (pec), wide receiver and the team’s leading pass catcher Diontae Johnson (knee), defensive end Carlos Davis (knee) and tight end Eric Ebron (coach’s decision).
Cornerbacks Joe Haden (groin) and Justin Layne (Achilles) were limited.
