Steelers vs. Buccaneers, Preseason Week 1: Only Ben Roethlisberger ruled out vs. Tampa Bay

The Pittsburgh Steelers are now preparing for their first preseason action of 2019 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Friday night at Heinz Field. While fans are excited about seeing the Steelers back on the field for the first time since their 2018 Week 17 win over the Cincinnati Bengals, there is a strong chance the team will be a shell of the one you will see when they travel to play the Patriots in Week 1.

Head coach Mike Tomlin addressed the media Wednesday to talk about the upcoming game, and in doing so detailed who will, and won’t, be playing on Friday when Bruce Arians and his team come to town.
