PITTSBURGH — The Pittsburgh Steelers have ruled out running backs Jaylen Warren (knee) and Cordarrelle Patterson (ankle) for Sunday night’s game against the Dallas Cowboys. Aaron Shampklin, who was promoted to the active roster this week, will serve as the No. 2 running back behind Najee Harris.
As expected, outside linebacker Alex Highsmith (groin) and tight end MyCole Pruitt (knee) will also be out. Mike Tomlin ruled Highsmith out on Tuesday.
Quarterback Russell Wilson (calf) is once again questionable. Defensive tackle Larry Ogunjobi was added to the injury report with a groin issue after being a limited participant in practice on Thursday. He’s listed as questionable for Sunday’s game. Outside linebacker Jeremiah Moon, who was activated from the injured reserve list this week, is listed as questionable, as well.
Steelers left guard Isaac Seumalo (pec), who was limited on Friday, doesn’t have an injury designation against Dallas.
“I feel pretty good,” Seumalo said on Friday. “I’ll let Coach Tomlin decide on that, but I felt good the past couple of days.”
Seumalo missed the first four games with a pectoral injury, which was suffered during a late-August practice. He’s not worried about rust.
“I’ve got a lot of experience under my belt,” he said. “Even last year when I had the shoulder deal, I barely practiced. I’ve always been pretty good at mentally staying in it and physically staying on top of being in shape and all that good stuff.”
Defensive tackle Keeanu Benton (ankle) and outside linebacker Nick Herbig (ankle) also don’t have injury designations and are expected to play on Sunday.
The Cowboys will be without All-Pro edge rusher Micah Parsons (ankle), defensive end DeMarcus Lawrence (foot) and wide receiver Brandin Cooks. The Cowboys officially ruled out Parsons on Friday. All-Pro cornerback Trevon Diggs (ankle) and cornerback Caelen Carson (shoulder) are listed as questionable.
