Pittsburgh Steelers player notes for Sep 22nd, 2018


David DeCastro – Important – Injury

Marcus Gilbert – Noteworthy – Injury
RT Marcus Gilbert is battling a hamstring injury that kept him out of practice Thursday and Friday. Gilbert was a limited participant in Saturday’s practice and told reporters that he considers himself a game-time decision for the prime-time matchup against the 2-0 Buccaneers.
