Christian Kuntz: Everything you need to know

Kuntz (knee) has been upgraded and has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Lions. The Duquesne product was a limited practice participant Thursday and Friday due to a knee injury, but it now appears he's ready to play in Sunday's contest. Expect Kuntz to serve as the Steelers' long snapper during the Week 16 matchup.

Kuntz is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Lions due to a knee injury, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports. Kuntz popped up on Thursday's injury report due to a knee injury. The Steelers don't have another long snapper on the practice squad or active roster, so it's unclear who would handle those duties if Kuntz is unable to play Sunday.

Kuntz (chest) wasn't listed on Pittsburgh's injury report Wednesday, Teresa Varley of the team's official site reports. Kuntz exited the team's preseason matchup versus Tampa Bay with a chest injury last month but is now healthy again. The 31-year-old will now serve as the team's long snapper once again during the upcoming season.
