The Steelers have listed safety Terrell Edmunds, wide receiver Diontae Johnson, and linebacker Myles Jack as questionable for tomorrow night’s game against the Raiders. Edmunds is nursing a hamstring injury, Johnson has turf toe, and Jack is plagued by a knee injury. He missed last Sunday’s game, but he was a full practice participant yesterday while Edmunds and Johnson sat out.
Wide receiver George Pickens missed practice yesterday due to illness.
The Steelers have moved today’s ceremony marking the 50th anniversary of the Immaculate Reception indoors. It was scheduled to get underway at 3:30 at the Immaculate Reception monument between Acrisure Stadium and the site of Three Rivers Stadium. Instead, it will be held inside the FedEx Great Hall at Acrisure, which the team will have open from 2 to 5 PM. They also plan to replay the famous radio call of Jack Fleming at precisely 3:41 PM, the exact moment 50 years ago that the play happened. The event may still be weather dependent, though, based on the travel conditions.
The team will still plan to retire Franco Harris’s jersey number 32 at halftime of tomorrow night’s game. The family still has not announced its plans for Franco’s funeral service. He died on Tuesday at the age of 72.
