This is a big game for the 1-4 Steelers who are looking to turn their season around against the Buccaneers. The Steelers defense is coming into this game pretty beat up, and to go along with that this offense is looking to find their identity.
This is going to be a tough game for the Steelers special teams with 10-15 MPH SSW winds along with 20-25 MPH wind gusts.
Let’s get into the players to watch.
Offense 8 Kenny Pickett, QB 22 Najee Harris, RB 14 George Pickens, WR 18 Diontae Johnson, WR 83 Connor Heyward, TE 61 Mason Cole, C 78 James Daniels, G
Defense 97 Cam Heyward, DE 92 Isaiahh Loudermilk, DE 56 Alex Highsmith, OLB 51 Myles Jack, ILB 42 James Pierre, CB 35 Arthur Maulet, CB 21 Tre Norwood, FS
Special Teams 9 Chris Boswell, K 6 Pressley Harvin III, P 82 Steven Sims, RS
This is going to be a tough week with all the injuries the steelers have on defense, for them to stop Tom Brady and the Buccaneers offense.
But this week also gives the steelers a chance to what the depth players can do. This is epically a big game for 2nd year defensive linemen Isaiahh Loudermilk, who should be getting a helmet for the first time this season. Loudermilk really showed up big last season as a rookie.
Let’s get into the injury report.
Steelers Cam Sutton, CB Hamstring Out Ahkello Witherspoon, CB Hamstring Out Levi Wallace, CB Concussion Out Minkah Fitzpatrick, S Knee Out Pat Freiermith, TE Concussion Out DeMarvin Leal, DE Knee Out
Buccaneers Mike Edwards, S Elbow Questionable Julio Jones, WR Knee Doubtful Akiem Hicks, DT Foot Out Sean Murphy-Bunting, CB Quad Out Logan Ryan, S Foot Out
