Pittsburgh Steelers vs. Baltimore Ravens injury report and starting lineup

The 8-7 Pittsburgh Steelers are still alive in the playoff hunt, but to maximize their chances of making it to the big dance, they will need to defeat the Baltimore Ravens. Meanwhile, the 8-8 Ravens will miss the playoffs, but still have the chance to finish the season above .500 this season, should they beat their rivals.

Both sides have been through a long season and neither team is at full strength. That said, the Steelers are clearly the healthier team between the two. Here's a look at the injury report for both teams and who will be starting for each team, according to CBS Sports.

The biggest names in question for the game on Sunday will be cornerback Joe Haden, tight end Eric Ebron, defensive end Stephon Tuitt, and wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster. Ebron and Tuitt still have a chance to play, as both have been listed as questionable. However, Smith-Schuster has been out for a while so there should be no surprise regarding his absence.

Baltimore Ravens injury report

Player	Position	Injury	Game Status
Devin Duvernay	WR	Ankle	Questionable
Lamar Jackson	QB	Ankle	Out
Justice Hill	RB	Achillies	Out
Marlon Humphrey	CB	Pectoral	Out
JK Dobbins	RB	Knee - ACL	Out
Gus Edwards	RB	Knee - ACL	Out
Marcus Peters	CB	Knee - ACL	Out
Derek Wolfe	DE	Back	Out

The Ravens have injuries all over the field. However, the most notable missing piece is Lamar Jackson. Without their starting quarterback, winning will be an uphill battle. Additionally, while much of the team's less important pieces are in a decent state, pre-existing injuries to players like Dobbins, Peters and Wolfe have cut the team off at the knees from the start.
