Not playing against Baltimore
Lee (calf) has been ruled out for Saturday's AFC wild-card game against the Ravens, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports. The rookie sixth-round pick missed the entire regular season due to a calf injury which forced him to go on injured reserve in early September. Lee was a full participant in practice all week, but it appears he hasn't progressed enough in his recovery to play Saturday. He could play next weekend should the Steelers win and advance to the divisional round.
Full practice Tuesday
Lee (calf) was a full participant at the Steelers' practice Tuesday. Lee was designated to return from injured reserve last week, practicing in a limited capacity. The linebacker's ability to open the week as a full participant is a good sign for his chances to be activated from IR prior to Saturday's matchup with the Ravens. Lee has missed the entirety of his rookie season to this point while nursing a calf injury.
No go for Week 18
Lee (calf) is out for Saturday's matchup with the Steelers, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports. Lee will remain on the sidelines for Week 18, although he was able to return to practice this week. The defensive lineman has missed the entirety of the season to this point with a calf injury, but he will be eligible to make his NFL debut in the playoffs.
Able to return to practice
Lee (calf) was designated to return from injured reserve Tuesday, Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com reports. Lee hasn't played at all this season after being selected by Pittsburgh in the sixth round of April's NFL Draft. He hurt his calf prior to the start of Week 1 and has been on injured reserve since early September. Lee could be activated in time for Saturday's Week 18 game against the Bengals or at some point in the postseason, though he's unlikely to see much action even if he does come off IR.
Placed on IR with calf injury
The Steelers placed Lee on injured reserve Saturday due to a calf injury, Brian Batko of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports. Lee was already ruled out for Sunday's regular-season opener against the Falcons after logging DNP's for all three practices. His calf injury is severe enough for him to go on IR, and the rookie sixth-round pick will have to sit for at least four games. The earliest Lee can return is Week 5 against the Cowboys on Oct. 6.
Missing Week 1
Lee (calf) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Falcons. The rookie defensive lineman out of Iowa will have to wait to make his NFL debut, as he won't suit up for Pittsburgh's Week 1 contest due to a calf injury. Isaiahh Loudermilk has a chance to see additional snaps on the Steelers' defensive line in Lee's stead.
