Pittsburgh Steelers starting running back Najee Harris was included on the team’s first injury report of Week 7.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

\n

The Pittsburgh Steelers have released their first injury report of the week heading into a Week 7 bout against the New York Jets on Sunday Night Football.<\/p>\n

Running back Najee Harris (ribs) did not participate on Wednesday. He is coming off of his best performance of the season in the\u00a0Steelers’ Week 6 victory\u00a0over the Las Vegas Raiders, where he posted 106 rushing yards and a touchdown on 14 carries.<\/p>\n

Outside linebacker Alex Highsmith (groin) picked up right where he left off last week as a limited participant. He hasn’t played since suffering his injury in Week 3 versus the Los Angeles Chargers, but on Tuesday head coach Mike Tomlin\u00a0expressed optimism\u00a0that he could return in the near future.<\/p>\n

Outside linebacker Nick Herbig (hamstring) and center Zach Frazier (ankle) both did not practice, and neither player is expected to suit up against the Jets. Herbig\u00a0left the Steelers’ Week 5 loss\u00a0to the Dallas Cowboys with his injury and did not play last Sunday, while Frazier\u00a0departed in the third quarter\u00a0against the Raiders and will be\u00a0evaluated on a week-to-week basis.<\/p>\n

Safety Damontae Kazee (ankle) and running back\/kick returner Cordarrelle Patterson (ankle) also did not participate. Kazee was not active for Pittsburgh in Week 6 after hurting himself during pre-game warm ups in Week 5, while Patterson has not played since Week 4 versus the Indianapolis Colts.<\/p>\n

Tight end MyCole Pruitt (knee) was a full participant for the first time since going down in Week 2 against the Denver Broncos. He returned to practice as a limited participant last week, though he ultimately remained sidelined in Las Vegas. Now, Pruitt appears to stand a real chance of playing on Sunday as he continues to show tangible progress in his recovery.<\/p>\n

Outside linebacker T.J. Watt, defensive linemen Larry Ogunjobi and Cameron Heyward as well as offensive guard Isaac Seumalo all received veteran rest days and did not practice.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
