It’s now looking like the Pittsburgh Steelers won’t be getting get one of their key offensive backups back this weekend for their road game against the Cincinatti Bengals.
According to the Steelers Thursday injury report, running back DeAngelo Williams (knee) failed to practice earlier in the day. Williams was listed as practicing fully on Wednesday so his knee must not have responded well to that work. Also sitting out Thursday were wide receiver Darrius Heyward-Bey (foot) and safety Shamarko Thomas (concussion). Neither are expected to play against the Bengals.
