The Steelers sign a running back, place two cornerbacks on injured reserve.
The Steelers made three roster moves ahead of Sunday’s Week 11 matchup against the Baltimore Ravens.
Per Steelers.com, Pittsburgh placed cornerback C.J. Henderson on the reserve/injured list, also signing running back Jonathan Ward from the practice squad to the active roster in a corresponding roster move.
The Steelers also placed cornerback Zyon Gilbert on the practice squad reserve/injured list.
The moves leave the Steelers with two open spots on their practice squad.
Pittsburgh signed Henderson to the 53-man roster in late October, concerned the former first-round pick would be poached by another team from the Steelers’ practice squad.
Ward, who has five carries for 22 yards this season, could give the Steelers some extra depth at running back if Jaylen Warren is unable to play on Sunday. However, Warren is expected to play despite a back injury that listed him as questionable on the injury report.
Pittsburgh kicks off against Baltimore on Nov. 17 at 1 p.m. ET.
