The Steelers slim chance of making it into the playoffs appear to be even slimmer.

The team has played top wide receiver Diontae Johnson and center Kendrick Green on the Reserve/ COVID-19 list on Thursday.


On Wednesday, Cornerback Joe Haden was placed on the list and defensive coordinator Keith Butler was placed in COVID protocols.

Those moves come after the Steelers had about a two-hour window on Wednesday when no one was on the list.

If unable to play, Haden and Johnson will be big hits to the Steelers offense and defense.

Johnson leads the team with 100 catches for 1,110 yards. In 15 games he has a career-high eight touchdown catches.

Green was working is was back from a calf injury and did not play in Monday night's game against Cleveland.

If Green is unable to go, J.C. Hassenauer will get the start.

The Steelers must beat the Ravens in Baltimore and the Jaguars have to upset the Colts for Pittsburgh to make the playoffs.
