Steelers Get Positive Injury Update Before Bills Game

The Pittsburgh Steelers will be at near full strength for the playoff opener against the Bills.
In this story:

PITTSBURGH -- The Pittsburgh Steelers injury report had just one blemish on it at the end of a clean week of practice with the playoff opener against the Buffalo Bills looming this weekend. 

The Steelers listed three players on the final injury report. Three were full participants and two did not practice, but only one was ruled out for Wild Card Weekend. 

Offensive guard Issac Seumalo, who practiced fully the day prior, sat out of the final practice of the week but did not get an injury designation for the game, so is expected to play. He's been dealing with a nagging shoulder injury for the past few weeks and has missed some practice time as the Steelers try to manage it. 

Superstar outside linebacker T.J. Watt is out with a knee injury as expected. 

The remaining three injured Steelers - linebacker Elandon Roberts (pectoral), running back Najee Harris (knee) and safety Minkah Fitzpatrick - have all practiced fully for the past two days and are good to go for kickoff against the Bills.
