The Pittsburgh Steelers received a massive injury boost ahead of their Week 10 matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals, as multiple previously injured players are set to return this Sunday.
Taking a look at Friday's final Week 10 practice report, Steelers safety DeShon Elliott (ankle), wide receiver Ben Skowronek (calf), cornerback Brandin Echols (hamstring) and defensive back Doneiko Slaughter (hamstring) are not carrying an injury designation for the Sunday Night Football matchup against Cincinnati.

Elliott, who suffered a season-ending hamstring tear/hyperextended knee in 2025, was activated off injured reserve
and returned in Week 7, but picked up a surprise new ankle injury in practice this week. Elliott's availability will be a huge factor against Cincinnati's fearsome passing attack.
As for Skowronek, Echols, and Slaughter, all three players have missed time with respective injuries but will now make their Week 10 return against the Bengals on Sunday Night Football. The same can't be said for Cincinnati's injury woes, however, as the Bengals deemed three players as a doubtful to play against Pittsburgh in Week 10.
