Steelers Friday Injury Report Week 13: Smith-Schuster Officially Out; Conner Doubtful

The Pittsburgh Steelers have now released what will likely be their final injury report of Week 13 ahead of the team’s Sunday home game against the Cleveland Browns and the Friday offering shows that one player is out, one is doubtful and one other is questionable for that contest.

After failing to practice all week, wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster (knee, concussion) was riled out for the Steelers Sunday game against the browns on the Friday injury report. This will make the second consecutive game that Smith-Schuster has missed due to injuries he suffered in the Thursday night Week 11 game against the Browns.

Steelers running back James Conner (shoulder) ends the week listed as doubtful on the injury report after being a limited practice participant on Friday. Conner is still not expected to play Sunday unless he makes a huge improvement before Sunday. Like Smith-Schuster, this would be a second-consecutive game missed for Conner if he’s inactive on Sunday against the Browns.

Steelers cornerback Artie Burns (knee) ends the week listed as questionable after practicing fully on Friday. Burns was listed as a limited participant on Thursday. He missed the team’s last game with his knee injury so it will be interesting to see if he plays on Sunday.

Practicing fully on Friday for the Steelers were tackle Alejandro Villanueva (shoulder) guard Ramon Foster (not injury related) and neither received a game status designation on the final injury report. Both will play Sunday against the Browns.
