The Steelers get one offensive start back, but will be without another on Sunday in an important battle with the Ravens.
Pittsburgh Steelers running back Rashard Mendenhall will most likely be available for head coach Mike Tomlin when the team faces the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday. Quarterback Ben Roethlisberger will be out, as he battles injuries to his ribs and throwing shoulder.
The Steelers' running game has been hampered by injuries all season, and it appears that just as they were finally going to catch a break, the passing game takes a hit. Still, Pittsburgh has overcome to post a 6-3 record and has a chance to pull even with the Ravens for first in the AFC North with a win.
The Ravens will have one of their top run-stoppers, as defensive tackle Haloti Ngata is listed as probable after being limited in practice all week. Nose tackle Terrence Cody is questionable with an arm injury. Cornerback Jimmy Smith is the only player listed as "Out" for Baltimore.
The two teams will meet on Sunday night at 8:20 p.m. ET. Full injury reports listed below.
