PITTSBURGH -- The Pittsburgh Steelers got some good news and a lot of news to monitor on their opening injury report of Week 13. 

To start the practice week, eight players are currently dealing with injuries. Najee Harris (oblique) and Ahkello Witherspoon (hamstring) did not practice. T.J. Watt (ribs), Larry Ogunjobi (toe), Mason Cole (foot), Myles Jack (knee), Robert Spillane (oblique), and Minkah Fitzpatrick (ribs) were all limited. 

Head coach Mike Tomlin listed all eight players are names to monitor throughout the week. Despite starting slow, all the limited players are still expected to make a full recovery by the weekend and play against the Atlanta Falcons. 

Harris's status remains unknown, but the running back did avoid any major injury in his abdomen. 

Jaylen Warren (hamstring) and Miles Boykin (oblique) were both full participants after missing Week 11. Warren told reporters after practice that he's been cleared and will play against the Falcons.
