Marcus Gilbert expects to play against the Chiefs

Right tackle Marcus Gilbert had some setbacks with his injured hamstring the past two weeks, but he said after practice Wednesday that he expects to play Sunday when the Steelers travel to Kansas City to play the undefeated Chiefs.

“I’m excited to be out there with my guys,” said Gilbert, who has missed the past three games. “It’s been a while. It’s going to be a work in progress, but I feel great.”

Gilbert went through a full practice each Wednesday the past two weeks, but was either limited or did not practice on Thursday and Friday last week.
