Steelers declared QB Kenny Pickett, S Trenton Thompson, CB Darius Rush, S Minkah Fitzpatrick, LB Blake Martinez, T Dylan Cook, and DE DeMarvin Leal inactive for Week 16 against the Bengals.
It’ll be Mason Rudolph under center for the Steelers after he took over for Mitch Trubisky to end the team’s Week 15 loss to the Colts. The Steelers should lean further into their run game against a Bengals defense without standout nose tackle D.J. Reader.

Bengals declared WR Ja’Marr Chase, RB Chris Evans, LB Devin Harper, C Trey Hill, OT D’Ante Smith, TE Irv Smith, and DT Travis Bell inactive for Week 16 against the Steelers.
Chase had been ruled out earlier in the week with an AC joint sprain that could keep him out in Week 17 as well. It’ll be up to Tee Higgins, Tyler Boyd, and some combination of Trenton Irwin, Andre Iosivas, and Charlie Jones to hold down the wide receiver position for an offense running elevated rates of 12-personnel.

Amazing to think professional football started in Ohio and both Ohio teams never won a Super Bowl.

Wow what a grab and run by Pickens for the TD!

The Steelers offense and defense looking good so far.

Terrible mistake by Browning not throwing it out of bounds, just terrible.

Early Merry Christmas to those that celebrate it and Happy Holidays to others who do not.
