Pittsburgh Steelers Injury Updates: WR Roman Wilson is set to make his NFL debut. OT Troy Fautanu is questionable.<\/p>\n

\n

PITTSBURGH \u2014\u00a0<\/b>Rookie wide receiver Roman Wilson appears set to make his NFL debut for the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday in the team\u2019s Week 3 game against the Los Angeles Chargers, but another rookie, Troy Fautanu, might miss the game with an injury.<\/p>\n

Wilson was a full participant in the team\u2019s final practice session of the week, his second straight full practice session, and was not given an injury designation in the team\u2019s final practice status report on Friday.<\/p>\n

The team\u2019s third-round pick out of Michigan in the 2024 NFL Draft, Wilson suffered a left ankle sprain during the first padded practice of training camp way back on July 30, and has been rehabbing ever since.<\/p>\n

\u201cEvery day I come into this building, I just do what I can to get ready for the game,\u201d Wilson said on Thursday. \u201cI just come here and practice hard and do what I\u2019ve got to do, one day at a time. \u2026 Every day I feel like I come in here and get a little bit better. That\u2019s all I can really focus on, having a good attitude and getting better every day.\u201d<\/p>\n

Two Steelers players have been ruled out against the Chargers and two more are listed as questionable.<\/p>\n

Left guard Isaac Seumalo (pec) and tight end MyCole Pruitt (knee) are both out. Neither player practiced all this week. Spencer Anderson will replace Seumalo at left guard for the third straight game.\u00a0Rodney Williams II, who was called up from the practice squad earlier this week, should replace Pruitt in the tight end rotation.<\/p>\n

Quarterback Russell Wilson and tackle Troy Fautanu are both listed as questionable. Wilson is expected to once again be the emergency backup behind Justin Fields and Kyle Allen. He has been very\u00a0limited in mobility during practice drills this week.<\/p>\n

Fautanu suffered a knee injury in practice on Friday. The first-round pick had just returned to action from a preseason knee injury. It\u2019s unknown if this is a new injury or an aggravation of the old one. His status remains very much up in the air. Broderick Jones will replace him if he is unable to play.<\/p>\n
