Pierre failed to practice Friday due to the shoulder issue, but he'll nevertheless be ready to suit up. He's played primarily on special teams this season and that should remain the case against the Bengals.
Pierre seems to be trending in the wrong direction to play in Sunday's divisional matchup, as he's gone from limited practice sessions both Wednesday and Thursday to a DNP on Friday. The fourth-year cornerback has appeared in 10 games for the Steelers this season, recording five total tackles and playing almost strictly on special teams.
