The Pittsburgh Steelers are going through a rollercoaster of injuries and illnesses this season. That being said, do you want the good news or the bad news first? The latest injury update for Sunday night's game has a little bit of both. NFL reporter Dov Kleiman tweeted the news shortly after the team released their injury report.

He mentioned key players that the Steelers would miss in the upcoming primetime game against the Chargers. Linebacker T.J. Watt and cornerback Joe Haden being two of the biggest pieces missing for Sunday night. Watt is sidelined for a hip injury, while Haden is working through a foot injury.

The Steelers will also be without safety Minkah Fitzpatrick since he is on the Reserve/COVID-19 list.

However, while it was not stated in the Steelers official injury report, Ben Roethlisberger is expected to be activated for gametime. Big Ben is currently still on the Reserve/COVID-19 list after he tested positive for the virus last week.

As long as he tests negative twice at least 24 hours apart before the team takes off for Los Angeles on Saturday, he will be the starter.

Both Joe Haden and T.J. Watt are expected to return for Week 12's matchup against the Bengals. It is unclear when Minkah Fitzpatrick will be cleared and taken off of the Reserve/COVID-19 list.
