Steelers place Haden on COVID-19 List

The Steelers got good news early Wednesday regarding their players on the Reserve/COVID-19 List as all of the players who had been on their 53-man roster were activated and available for practice.

Then, after practice, cornerback Joe Haden was placed on the list. Defensive coordinator Keith Butler also tested positive, meaning he is unavailable to the team as well as the Steelers (8-7-1) prepare for their regular season finale against the Ravens (8-8) in Baltimore Sunday.

Haden could still make it back for the Steelers' finale, but would need to clear the NFL's new COVID-19 protocols in time to do so.
