Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown is deemed active for Monday’s matchup against the Cincinnati Bengals, per ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler, who heard the news from colleague Lisa Walters.

Brown entered Monday listed as questionable due to a toe injury but was seen on the field doing warm-ups while dressed in complete uniform prior to the game, indicating that he’s all set to take part in the contest.

That being said, it remains to be seen whether Brown will be at his 100 percent on the field.

Brown has been a force downfield, particularly in the Steelers last two games, during which he racked up totals of 313 receiving yards and five touchdowns on 20 receptions, but could see a regression if his toe continues to be problematic.

While the Steelers could afford to rest Brown, as they are atop the AFC North with a 9-2 record, the 7-5 Baltimore Ravens could still pull the rug underneath Pittsburgh with four weeks left in the regular season. Apart from that, the Steelers are also trying to keep in step with the 10-2 New England Patriots for the number one seed in the AFC.

Brown currently leads the NFL in receiving yards with 1,195 and is tied for second in receiving scores with eight.
