The anticipated weather has forced both the Pittsburgh Steelers and Buffalo Bills to make last-minute adjustments to their starting lineup.
Much to the surprise of fans attending the Steelers-Bills matchup at Acrisure Stadium, Mitch Trubisky got the start over Josh Allen. A flurry of boos rang out when Trubisky was announced and Pittsburgh’s former quarterback trotted to the line.
The Steelers’ starters are also missing T.J. Watt. While Mike Tomlin said on Thursday that everyone healthy would play in tonight’s dress rehearsal matchup, Watt is not among them. Dressed in street clothes on the sideline, there’s no injury concern with Watt, but the forecasted weather could present a problem with field conditions.
