The Pittsburgh Steelers will host the Cincinnati Bengals in the second of two matchups between the two teams in Week 11. The Steelers lost the first matchup and are in must-win territory as they try to hold
off the Baltimore Ravens from taking over the AFC North lead.
The Steelers will be playing without three notable defenders in Week 11, most notably Alex Highsmith. Highsmith did not practice all week with a pectoral injury. He was coming off two consecutive games of two sacks against the Colts and Chargers, respectively. Cole Holcomb (illness) and Darius Slay (concussion) are both out, as well.
Cornerback Cory Trice (hamstring/knee) and guard Isaac Seumalo (pectoral) are listed as questionable. No one else on the roster has a game designation.
With Highsmith out of the lineup, Nick Herbig will have a bigger role, which has boded well for the Steelers this season. Herbig has 5.5 sacks on the season, as well as two forced fumbles and an interception.
