Sustained a pectoral injury, but was a limited participant on Thursday, but Highsmith is making progress after missing Pittsburgh's Week 11 win over the Bengals and subsequently being listed as a non-participant at Wednesday's practice

Has been ruled out of Week 11 with a pectoral injury that limited him in practice this week and wasn't able to practice on Friday

Played through a pectoral injury last week while recording two sacks, it's unclear when the injury happened but it has caused his status to be limited in practice this week, if he returns on Friday in a full capacity, he'll be ready for Sunday

Limited in practice on Thursday while dealing with an ankle injury that's been present since Week 2, it cost him two games earlier this season and has been an on-and-off issue throughout the year

Was a full participant in practice on Thursday ahead of Week 6 with an ankle injury, an upgrade from a limited session on Wednesday signifies he's trending towards playing this week vs the Browns

Sustained a high ankle sprain on Sunday and is expected to miss 4-6 weeks with a stint on the IR a possibility

Is unlikely to play this weekend in W13, he was a limited participant in Friday's practice but still remains listed as Doubtful

Has been ruled out with an ankle injury ahead of W12 on a short week for TNF, missed last week with the same injury and the short week likely didn't provide enough recovery time

Has been ruled out with an ankle injury ahead of W11 vs the Ravens, he may be week-to-week after sustaining the injury during W10 action
