The Pittsburgh Steelers have now announced their seven inactive players for their Sunday Divisional Round playoff game against the Denver Broncos and none of the names listed are surprising.
After being ruled out on the Friday injury report with a foot injury, veteran running back DeAngelo Williams is inactive once again as is wide receiver Antonio Brown, who won’t play Sunday because of a concussion that he suffered last weekend.
With Brown out, rookie wide receiver Sammie Coates is active. Wide receiver Markus Wheaton is expected to return punts against the Broncos with Brown sidelined.
As expected, quarterback Ben Roethlisberger will start against the Broncos despite ending the week listed as questionable with a shoulder injury.
