The Steelers got some bad news yesterday with Sunday’s game against the Bengals just around the corner.
Rookie running back Anthony McFarland missed practice due to illness, which raises alarms because the team is already dealing with a positive coronavirus test for tight end Vance McDonald, and the reserve/Covid-19 designation of Ben Roethlisberger, Vince Williams, Jaylen Samuels, and Jerald Hawkins. McDonald won’t play this weekend but the team is expecting the four others to be available, if they choose to use them. Certainly starters Roethlisberger and Williams will play is they are cleared.
Also yesterday, a day after being a full participant in practice, cornerback Mike Hilton was downgraded to limited participation. Nose tackles Tyson Alualu and Isaiah Buggs were also limited.
