Von Miller's Buffalo Bills and Najee Harris' Pittsburgh Steelers were both counted out at one point this season. However, both teams have found a way to get into the Wild Card round. That said, not every player will get to celebrate the achievement on the field. Here's a look at who could be absent on each team's roster.
Pittsburgh Steelers injury report for 2024 AFC Wild Card round
The Steelers are largely intact on offense, all things considered. However, defensively, the team has taken a few big hits. At this point, if the Steelers lose against the Bills, one might point to injuries on defense to be the culprit. Here's how it shakes out.
Patrick Peterson injury status
Patrick Peterson received rest in two practices this week. The team's report states it is not injury-related, but limited practices due to rest are rare. Peterson had one such practice on Wednesday and missed the day on Thursday.
Najee Harris injury status
Najee Harris is dealing with a knee injury. He didn't practice on Wednesday but had a full practice on Thursday. He's on track to play.
Minkah Fitzpatrick injury status
The free safety has a knee injury, but he practiced twice this week. He's on track to play.
TJ Watt injury status
TJ Watt is still dealing with the knee injury suffered at the end of the season. He's not expected to play.
Cameron Heyward injury status
Cameron Heyward is resting this week, receiving two limited practices. He's expected to play.
Isaac Seumalo injury status
Isaac Seumalo is dealing with a shoulder injury and missed practice on Wednesday. He was a full go on Thursday and is on track to play.
Buffalo Bills injury report for 2024 AFC Wild Card round
The Buffalo Bills are banged up from top to bottom on the roster. From Josh Allen to Damar Hamlin, the team appears to be afflicted with injuries at every level. However, most are expected to gut it out for an elimination game against the Steelers. Had the injuries taken place earlier in the year, there might have been more of a question, but it is all hands on deck this week.
Josh Allen injury status
Having a team's quarterback on the injury report is never a good thing. Allen is dealing with a neck injury but has managed to practice in full twice this week. He's expected to start.
Gabe Davis injury status
The wide receiver is dealing with a knee injury and hasn't practiced yet this week. His status is questionable.
Leonard Floyd injury status
The defensive end got a vet rest day on Wednesday and practiced on Thursday. He is expected to play.
Damar Hamlin injury status
Damar Hamlin is on the injury report with a shoulder injury. He practiced in full twice and is expected to be able to play.
Micah Hyde injury status
The safety is dealing with a neck injury. He practiced in full in two practices this week and thus appears on track to play.
Taylor Rapp injury status
The safety is dealing with a calf injury and has yet to practice this week. His status is questionable.
Dawson Knox injury status
Dawson Knox is dealing with an illness and hasn't practiced this week. His availability is questionable.
Dion Dawkins injury status
The tackle in charge of defending Josh Allen's blindside is dealing with a hand injury and an illness. He had a limited practice on Wednesday and didn't practice on Thursday. His status is questionable.
