Hendrickson Doubtful, Stewart Week-to-Week Before Steelers; Burrow Returns to Practice

Pittsburgh's protection gains a clear advantage with Cincinnati's edge depth in doubt.

Overview

  • Head coach Zac Taylor listed All-Pro edge Trey Hendrickson as doubtful for Week 11 against Pittsburgh due to a lingering hip injury.
  • Rookie first-rounder Shemar Stewart is considered week to week with a knee issue and was not spotted at the first practice after the bye.
  • Hendrickson’s hip problem dates to Week 6, he already missed the first Steelers meeting, and his practice status remains uncertain as the team monitors him day to day.
  • The Sporting News notes the Steelers’ tackles Broderick Jones and Troy Fatanu could face lighter edge pressure if both Bengals rushers are out.
  • Cincinnati designated Joe Burrow to return from injured reserve, and he has resumed practicing as the 3-6 Bengals try to avoid further ground lost in the AFC North.
