Marcus Gilbert hasn’t practiced since the week leading up to the Carolina Panthers game. He hasn’t played since before the bye week. Pittsburgh Steelers Head Coach Mike Tomlin did not rule out the possibility of the veteran offensive lineman being healthy enough to play this week; however, he also didn’t commit to him starting.
Asked if Gilbert would automatically go back into the starting lineup if available, Tomlin told reporters earlier today that “it depends on what he looks like. First he’s got to get medical clearance, and then we base it on his performance.
