The Pittsburgh Steelers have now announced their seven inactive players for their Week 14 Sunday game against the Cincinnati Bengals and while the team will get two young linebackers back on the field this week, they won’t have one of their veterans outside guys.
Linebacker James Harrison is inactive Sunday with a left knee injury and it will be the first game that the veteran has missed all season since being signed prior to Week 4. While Harrison is out for Sunday’s game, the Steelers will get back young linebackers Jarvis Jones and Ryan Shazier this week. Jones has been out since Week 3 with a dislocated wrist while Shazier has missed the last three games with an ankle injury.
In a surprise move, running back Dri Archer is listed as one of the seven inactives. The team will also get nose tackle Steve McLendon back this week as well.
