PITTSBURGH (93.7 The Fan) – Limited Wednesday and did not practice on Thursday, Steelers center Zach Frazier was able to do some work Friday and is listed as questionable for Sunday night. Also, the Steelers have a receiver back and one out for the Green Bay game and could add to their special teams.

Frazier injured his calf during the season series against the Bengals last Thursday. He played through it, but missed practice time this week. Frazier missed two games due to injury his rookie season, but has started all six games this year.

Calvin Austin has practiced full all week and is set to return from his shoulder injury.
Austin missed the last two games, overall has 10 receptions for 139 yards and a pair of touchdowns including the game-winner at New England.

Receiver Scotty Miller, who plays on special teams, is out with a finger injury.

Linebacker Malik Harrison is in the 21-day window to return from a knee injury suffered Week 1 against the Jets. He said he doesn’t feel pain anymore and is listed as questionable.

“I’ve been in the league for six years, special teams side especially,” Harrison said. “I’ve been in meeting rooms this whole time I’ve been out of it and talked to the young guys, what I see.”

Harrison is 6’3”, 247 pounds and started 34 games for the Ravens. The 27-year-old believes he could make an impact on defense in helping stop the run.

“Definitely, that’s what they brought me here for. I’m a physical guy. I’m excellent in stopping the run. That’s what I came here for.”
