Predicting the Steelers’ Week 5 inactive list vs. the Eagles

The Steelers got an extra week to get healthy before facing the Philadelphia Eagles, but unfortunately the two players who were going to miss Week 4 were still unable to go all week and will be out for Week 5. Although they have yet to use the new rule, the Steelers could consider elevating a player from the practice squad for the first time in 2020.

There are new rules in 2020 when it comes to the players active on game day. As long as a team has eight offensive lineman who will be dressing for the game, they could have 48 players on their active roster rather than the 46 in previous seasons.
