Steelers WR JuJu Smith-Schuster has cleared the league’s concussion protocol but is still listed with a knee injury.

That’s one hurdle cleared for JuJu but his knee is still an issue as he did not practice Wednesday. It’s early yet, but it’s possible Juju misses another game as the Steelers continue to deal with offensive injuries as James Conner (shoulder) also did not practice. Keep an eye throughout the week.

Carson Wentz has a little bruise on his right hand.

Wentz is technically day-to-day but the tweet went on to say he'll be fine for the team's Week 13 game at Miami. Wentz and the Eagles offense need to get back on track this week after two sluggish games against New England and Seattle. The offense has now gone over four quarters without scoring a touchdown over those last two contests.

For the second consecutive week, the Philadelphia Eagles lost at home to a member of the NFL elite and failed to score more than 10 points in the process. To add injury to insult, their starting quarterback might have taken the biggest hit.

Carson Wentz hurt his right hand during the course of Philly's 17-9 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. The QB underwent X-rays during the game and the results were negative, coach Doug Pederson told reporters.

Wentz said he "should be good" according to the story, but this is now two games in a row he and the offense have really struggled. Reports he left the trainers room postgame with his right hand wrapped in ice. McCown is the team's backup QB if Wentz can't play at Miami in Week 13.

Steelers WR JuJu Smith-Schuster (concussion) and RB James Conner (shoulder) are both out for Sunday’s game against the Bengals.

Both were unlikely all week and the team made the official decision Friday. Diontae Johnson is expected to play, making him and James Washington the top options at receiver, while Jaylen Samuels should expect to see the bulk of the work in the backfield. The Steelers also won’t have suspended center Maurkice Pouncey for the next two weeks. They are hurting heading to Cincinnati.
