Well it wasn’t a good practice report following the Pittsburgh Steelers last day of real practice on Friday.

They officially listed TJ Watt, Joe Haden, Kevin Dotson, and Isiaah Loudermilk as out for Sundays game in Los Angeles.

OUT vs. Chargers:
-TJ Watt
-Joe Haden
-Kevin Dotson
-Isaiahh Loudermilk

With Watt out former first round pick Taco Charlton will make his first career start for the Steelers. Charlton was elevated from the practice squad once Melvin Ingram was traded to Kansas City.

James Pierre will replace Haden, while JC Hassenauer or Joe Haeg will start for Dotson.

The additional loss of Loudermilk is significant to a defensive line that’s already extremely short handed.

There’s been no word on quarterback Ben Roethlisberger. The team is likely holding out hope that he will be able to rejoin the team tomorrow before they fly out.

What about Minkah and Ben? There should be some update on them today. If Ben didn't practice today, then just start Rudolph on Sunday.
 
Rumor is Ben had a negative test today. Another one tomorrow and he plays on Sunday night!

I personally think Minkah is unvaccinated. He was immediately ruled out on Monday. We'll see if he returns next Friday, he was unvaxxed.

I thought prior to the season, once Najee finally got vaxxed, they said the entire team was vaxxed. That's what I'm running with. I've also heard one of the players (may have been Ben (say that in an interview). They are vaxxed AND individually taking extra precautions were his exact words.
 
Well, I'm holding out hope that Ben plays...

We should hear something definitive today I would assume.
 
Next man up.....the standard and all.
