Browns-Steelers Injury Report: Depth at OG and DL to be Tested

Raj Mehta-USA TODAY Sports

Here is a wrap-up of the injury situation for the Cleveland Browns heading into this week's game against the Pittsburgh Steelers:

  • OG Jason Pinkston has been ruled out with a concussion, and OG Shawn Lauvao missed the final two days of practice with a thigh injury. OG John Greco is expected to start for the first time since he hurt his knee, and there's a chance that OG Garrett Gilkey will get a start if Lauvao can't go.

  • The Browns will be thinner on the defensive line, as NT Phil Taylor is out with a concussion and DL John Hughes is doubtful to play. Expect more action for DE Armonty Bryant, NT Ishmaa'ily Kitchen, and even the newly-signed DE Brian Sanford.

  • TE Jordan Cameron was limited in practice on Friday and might be able to return after suffering a concussion two weeks ago. CB Joe Haden will be a game-time decision after not practicing all week.

  • The Steelers aren't missing any significant contributors.

The full injury and practice report for Cleveland vs. Pittsburgh is below.
