Titans Injury Report and Inactives Tonight
DeAndre Hopkins (toe) is officially questionable to play on Thursday night. However, early reports suggest the 31-year-old is expected to suit up and face the Steelers. Starting right tackle Chris Hubbard (concussion) is out, and so are defensive backs Roger McCreery (hamstring) and Mike Brown (ankle). Ryan Tannehill (ankle) will miss his second straight game, setting up rookie Will Levis for another start.
Standouts Derrick Henry (ankle), Tyjae Spears (ankle), and Jeffery Simmons (ankle) were all on the injury report this week but carry no injury designation into Week 9.
Steelers Injury Report and Inactives Tonight
Kenny Pickett (ribs) was rumored to be at risk of missing this primetime contest, but he is off the injury report heading into Thursday. Star safety Minkah Fitzpatrick (hamstring) is out, and starting cornerback Levi Wallace (foot) is questionable.
The good news for the Steelers is that All-Pro defensive lineman Cam Heyward (groin) will play in his first game since Week 1. The veteran suffered a groin injury in the season-opening loss to the San Francisco 49ers and was placed on Injured Reserve.
All around, the Steelers have a relatively clean bill of health for Week 9.
