You may want to brace yourself for this one. For the first time all season, the Pittsburgh Steelers will have the same starting lineup, and almost the same entire depth chart, this week as they did last week. No Steelers players suffered major injuries when the team defeated the Baltimore Ravens at home on Sunday, no previously injured players will be making their return to the lineup, and no transactions were made in the week leading up to Thursday night’s game against the Cleveland Browns.
The two scant changes on the depth chart below are that No. 3 tight end MyCole Pruitt is now healthy and expected to dress against the Browns, and the re-signing of Eric Rowe to the practice squad is the lone transaction noted this week.
Unlike a Sunday game, when rosters must be set on Saturday, the team does have until 4 p.m. to make further roster changes, but it’s looking largely like the same group out there this week for the Steelers as last week.
Here’s the rest of how the Steelers will line up against the Browns on Thursday:
