The Pittsburgh Steelers, fresh off a narrow victory over the Baltimore Ravens with an 18-16 scoreline at Acrisure Stadium, did not hold practice on Monday. However, in preparation for their upcoming Thursday night game against the Cleveland Browns, they released an estimated practice and injury report.

Head Coach Mike Tomlin provided limited updates regarding player injuries following the recent game. He mentioned that linebacker Alex Highsmith is unlikely to play on Thursday due to an ankle issue. "I hadn't checked in on Alex Highsmith in terms of seeing what his availability might look like," said Tomlin. "If you press me, I'd probably say he's more out than in, but we'll see where a short week leads us."

Nose tackle Keeanu Benton sustained a shin contusion during Sunday's game but appears to be recovering well. Tomlin expressed optimism about Benton's condition and other players who suffered minor injuries during the match. "I like the trajectory of some others," he noted.

Additionally, cornerback Cory Trice Jr., who was previously sidelined with a hamstring injury, may return after showing progress last week. "We opened the window for Cory Trice last week and he had a good week's work and may be available to us," Tomlin added.
