Needing all able-bodied offensive linemen they can muster, the Pittsburgh Steelers received a massive injury boost ahead of their Week 11 matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals.
On Friday, former first-round left tackle Broderick Jones, who missed practice on Wednesday and was limited on Thursday due to a groin injury, practiced in full and is expected to play this Sunday. Jones also dealt with a similar groin injury early in training camp, but his availability against Cincinnati is a welcome development for Pittsburgh’s inexperienced offensive line, which needs every starter available in this fierce divisional contest.
While the Steelers’ offense caught a break with Jones’ return, the same cannot be said on defense. Three defenders have been ruled out ahead of Week 11’s AFC North matchup between Pittsburgh and Cincinnati.
