Pittsburgh Steelers rule out three players; promising rookie could miss game

PITTSBURGH - The Pittsburgh Steelers have ruled out three players for Sunday's game against the New York Jets. Outside linebacker Nick Herbig (hamstring), running back Cordarrelle Patterson (ankle), and center Zach Frazier (ankle) will all miss the Sunday night game .

Meanwhile, the Steelers will welcome back three players, too. Outside linebacker Alex Highsmith, safety Damontae Kazee , and tight end MyCole Pruitt each missed last week's game against the Las Vegas Raiders but are now back for this week's game.

Running back Najee Harris, who missed Wednesday's practice with a rib injury, will play and is listed without an injury designation.

Wide receiver Roman Wilson suffered a hamstring injury in Thursday's practice. Wilson was limited on Friday and is now questionable. If he can not play, the Steelers could elevate Brandon Johnson from the practice squad.

Defensive tackle Montravius Adams appeared on the injury report as a late addition. He has a knee injury and was limited on Friday. Adams will be questionable for Sunday's game, but seems likely to play for the Steelers.
