Though the two are currently in concussion protocol, Pittsburgh Steelers’ standout defensive lineman Cameron Heyward expects star outside linebackers T.J. Watt and Alex Highsmith to play Saturday on the road against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 15.
According to a tweet from the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette’s Brian Batko, Heyward stated that he expects both to play, and was surprised that Watt was in concussion protocol because he didn’t notice anything different with Watt throughout interactions during last Thursday’s game against the New England Patriots.
Highsmith left the Thursday night loss to the Patriots in the second quarter with a neck injury after a run play from the Patriots and never returned.
