Skowronek (hip) returned to Saturday's game at Baltimore, Dale Lolley of the Steelers' official site reports. Skowronek picked up a hip injury in the first half but rejoined the Steelers offense after halftime. He'll look to build upon the two catches (on two targets) for 25 yards that he had accrued before leaving the contest.

Skowronek (hip) returned to Saturday's game at Baltimore, Dale Lolley of the Steelers' official site reports. Skowronek picked up a hip injury in the first half but rejoined the Steelers offense after halftime. He'll look to build upon the two catches (on two targets) for 25 yards that he had accrued before leaving the contest.
Skowronek is questionable to return to Saturday's game against the Steelers after suffering a hip injury. Skowronek surprisingly had two critical first-down receptions on Pittsburgh's lone first-quarter scoring drive. Expect Scotty Miller and Calvin Austin to see more snaps in Skowronek's absence.
Skowronek is active for Sunday's game against the Commanders, Dale Lolley of the Steelers' official site reports. Skowronek was placed on injured reserve with a shoulder injury prior to Week 3, and he'll be set for his first appearance since. He'll primarily play on special teams and is very unlikely to make any impact as a pass catcher.
The Steelers activated Skowronek (shoulder) off injured reserve Saturday, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports. Skowronek was elevated from the practice squad to the active roster each of the first two weeks of the season, and he was then signed to the active roster in mid-September. However, the wideout was immediately placed on IR upon the signing. Skowronek was designated to return earlier this week, and with his activation, he could return to the field Sunday against Washington. If he is active for the contest, Skowronek probably won't see much work on offense given that Pittsburgh's wideout corps is largely healthy and that he didn't see a target during either of the two games he has been active for so far this season.
Skowronek (shoulder) participated at practice Wednesday, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports. Skowronek has been on Pittsburgh's injured reserve list since he was signed due to a shoulder issue, but it now appears he could be approaching a return to the field. The Steelers have 21 days to activate him to their active roster before they'd have to keep him on IR for the rest of the season.
Skowronek (shoulder) was signed to the Steelers' 53-man roster, then placed on injured reserve Wednesday. Skowronek was elevated from the practice squad for each of Pittsburgh's first two games but hasn't had much of a role in the offense. His move to injured reserve will keep him sidelined for at least the next four weeks but, presumably, he'll be a part of the 53-man roster once he's healthy after his signing to the active roster Wednesday.
Skowronek is dealing with shoulder soreness Tuesday, Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com reports. Skowronek has been elevated from the Steelers' practice squad each of the first two weeks of the season. However, that has mostly led to a special teams role, as he's only seen six snaps on offense. This injury could impact his role this Sunday against the Chargers and keep him on the practice squad, as Calvin Austin (undisclosed) and Roman Wilson (ankle) deal with injuries as well. Pittsburgh currently has Quez Watkins, Brandon Johnson and Shaquan Davis as options at receiver on their practice squad, too.
Skowronek reverted to the Steelers' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log. Skowronek was elevated to the active roster for the second consecutive week to kick off the season. The depth receiver saw the field for six of 66 offensive snaps, as well as 12 on special teams. All-in-all he recorded one tackle.
The Steelers elevated Skowronek from their practice squad Saturday ahead of the team's Week 2 matchup versus Denver. Skowronek was also elevated ahead of Week 1 and played 10 snaps -- all on special teams -- against Atlanta. He'll likely have a similar role this Sunday while serving as wideout depth with rookie receiver Roman Wilson questionable to suit up due to an ankle injury.
