Five Pittsburgh Steelers players who missed Saturday’s Week 16 loss to the Baltimore Ravens appear to be in line to have a chance to play this Wednesday, when the team hosts the Kansas City Chiefs at Acrisure Stadium.

Strong safety DeShon Elliott, quarterback Justin Fields, cornerback Donte Jackson, defensive tackle Larry Ogunjobi and wide receiver George Pickens did not play against the Ravens. Mike Tomlin said they all have a shot to play on Wednesday.

“Some guys that didn’t play yesterday who have a real chance this week — Justin Fields, DeShon Elliott, Donte Jackson, George Pickens and Larry Ogunjobi — all have an opportunity to play this week,” Tomlin said. “We’ll see where the week leads us from their inclusion.”
