Pittsburgh Steelers injury report: Latest on Terrell Edmunds, Nick Herbig, Justin Fields and more for Week 10

The Pittsburgh Steelers are having an impressive 2024 season under head coach Mike Tomlin. The Steelers have compiled a 6-2 record and have recorded statement wins over fellow playoff hopefuls. Ahead of their Week 10 game against the Washington Commanders, let's take a look at their injury report.

Pittsburgh Steelers injury report

Terrell Edmunds' injury update

Terrell Edmunds has officially been ruled out of Sunday's match against the Washington Commanders. The safety has been dealing with an illness and won't be available for selection in Sunday's contest.

Edmunds missed every practice session this week due to an undisclosed illness. The versatile safety's next opportunity to feature for the Pittsburgh Steelers will be in Week 11 against the Baltimore Ravens.

Nick Herbig's injury update

Nick Herbig will not play in Sunday's game against the Commanders. The linebacker is dealing with a hamstring injury and hasn't been able to recover sufficiently to suit up in Week 10.

Herbig sustained the hamstring injury in his side's Week 5 defeat to the Dallas Cowboys. Despite making some progress in his recovery, he hasn't played a game since.

In his absence, expect new acquisition Preston Smith to suit up at linebacker versus the Commanders. He was acquired from the Baltimore Ravens ahead of the trade deadline.

Ben Skowronek's injury update

Ben Skowronek is listed as questionable for Sunday's game. The wide receiver is dealing with a shoulder injury.

Skowronek has been on the Steelers' injured reserve since he was moved up from the practice squad. The team now has 21 days to elevate him to the active roster unless he cannot play for the rest of the season.

Justin Fields' injury update

Justin Fields has no injury designation for Sunday's game. The veteran quarterback started the week on the injury report due to a hamstring issue but has been a full participant in every training session this week.

Hence, Fields will suit up against the Jayden Daniels-led Commanders. However, Fields is unlikely to feature on the gridiron as Russell Wilson is firmly established as Mike Tomlin's QB1.
