Pittsburgh enters Week 12 fighting for their playoff lives after a loss to Cleveland last week. The Steelers will be without two of their top players on offense, WR JuJu Smith-Schuster and RB James Conner against Cincinnati this Sunday in a must-win AFC North matchup.
Second-year QB Mason Rudolph is coming off of an abysmal performance against the Browns in which he threw four interceptions in a 21-7 loss. Rudolph has been the center of recent controversy regarding his altercation with Cleveland DE Myles Garrett on Thursday Night Football, but he must maintain his focus and rebound on the field in order to keep Pittsburgh in the playoff hunt.
