When the Pittsburgh Steelers and Baltimore Ravens square off on Sunday, there are going to be lots of new faces in the Steelers starting lineup. Injuries have forced Pittsburgh to really shuffle its roster all over the place. Here are the four Steelers we will be keeping a close eye on this week.
TE Darnell Washington
If the Steelers finally decide to use the tight end in the passing game, it could be the massive rookie Darnell Washington who steps up.
DT Keeanu Benton
Another rookie who could see a heavy workload on Sunday is defensive tackle Keeanu Benton. Benton has been the best defensive lineman on the team since Cam Heyward went down with an injury.
RB Najee Harris
Of all the Steelers talking this week, the one who seems the most fired up is running back Najee Harris. If the offensive line can do its part, we expect a big game from Harris.
EDGE T.J. Watt
Last week’s performance by EDGE T.J. Watt was underwhelming, to say the least. No one expected Watt to get shut out by a backup offensive tackle. We are banking on a huge bounceback this week.
