Pruitt (knee) practiced in full Thursday and does not carry an injury designation for Saturday's wild-card round game against the Ravens, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports. Pruitt was limited Tuesday then missed practice Wednesday, but his knee injury ultimately won't impact his availability for Saturday's road wild-card round matchup. Expect Pruitt to handle his usual depth role at tight end behind Pat Freiermuth and Darnell Washington.
Pruitt (knee) did not participate in Wednesday's practice, Mike DeFabo of The Athletic reports. Pruitt was limited in practice Tuesday due to a knee issue, and he appears to have now taken a step backward in his recovery. If the veteran No. 3 tight end is unable to play during Saturday's wild-card road game against the Ravens, his absence will deplete Pittsburgh's depth behind Pat Freiermuth and Darnell Washington.
Pruitt (knee) was a limited participant in Tuesday's practice. Pruitt likely picked up the injury during the Steelers' Week 18 loss to the Bengals. He'll have two more chances to increase his practice participation ahead of Saturday's wild-card game against the Ravens. For most of the 2024 regular season, Pruitt served as a blocking tight end and third on the Steelers' depth chart behind Pat Freiermuth and Darnell Washington. Pruitt ended the regular season with six catches (on 10 targets) for 40 yards and one touchdown across 12 games in his first season in Pittsburgh.
Pruitt (knee) was a full participant in Tuesday's practice, Mike DeFabo of The Athletic reports. Pruitt was also listed with rest, so it sounds like he's going to be fine for Thursday night's divisional clash with the Browns. The Steelers' No. 4 tight end, Pruitt has two catches for 19 yards this season.
Pruitt (knee) was listed as a non-participant on Monday's practice estimate, Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com reports. Pruitt is still working his way through a knee injury and was unable to suit up for Sunday's win over the Ravens. With Pittsburgh set to play the Browns on Thursday, the team didn't hold a practice, but if they did, Pruitt would not have participated. He'll likely have a chance to get on the field for an actual practice, or at least a walkthrough Tuesday.
Pruitt (knee) is inactive for Sunday's game against Baltimore, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports. Pruitt missed practice all week due to a knee injury he aggravated in Week 10 against the Commanders. Given his lack of practice participation, Pruitt may also be in danger of missing the Steelers' Week 12 game against the Browns on Thursday, Nov. 21. The Steelers will roll with Pat Freiermuth, Darnell Washington and Connor Heyward as the three tight ends for Sunday's contest.
Pruitt (knee) is listed as doubtful ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Ravens, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports. Pruitt appears to have worsened his knee injury in the Steelers' Week 10 win over the Commanders, as he's been unable to practice all week and is likely in line to miss his fifth game of the season Sunday. If Pruitt is sidelined in Week 11 as expected, Pittsburgh's tight end room will consist of Pat Freiermuth, Darnell Washington and Connor Heyward.
Pruitt (knee) didn't practice Wednesday, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports. The 32-year-old played through his knee injury in Sunday's win over the Commanders, failing to haul in his only target across 32 offensive snaps. Wednesday's DNP suggests that Pruitt may have worsened the injury in Week 10, and he'll likely need to upgrade to at least limited participation Thursday or Friday in order to play in Week 11, when the Steelers host the Ravens.
Pruitt (knee) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Commanders, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports. Pruitt popped up on the Steelers' injury report Thursday as a non-participant due to a knee issue, but he then upgraded to a full practice Friday, suggesting that he's returned to full health. Expect the Southern Illinois product to serve as Pittsburgh's fourth-string tight end in Week 10, playing behind Pat Freiermuth, Darnell Washington and Connor Heyward.
