The backstory: #Steelers QB Ben Roethlisberger self-reported symptoms to the team, took a test and was positive for COVID-19, source said. A great example of a player doing the right thing and preventing spread. Tough to self-report but a strong leadership move overall.

No, Mason Rudolph hasn't thrown a pass this season. But since 2019, he's started nine games. Diontae Johnson (33) and James Washington (25) have caught a lot of balls from him in that time. He runs the #Steelers first team every Wed and does a lot of Thurs too. Incl this week.

Steelers' OLB T.J. Watt questionable to return due to a hip injury.

The #Lions are down three more guys now. That's five starters/major contributors. And Chris Boswell just kicked a 51-yard field goal to pull the #Steelers back to even, at 16-16.

Pat Freiermuth fumbled the ball with around 10 seconds left in overtime, sealing a tie in the Lions-Steelers game Our play-by-play data goes back to 1994. This the first time in that span that a turnover happened with under 30 seconds remaining in OT stathead.com/tiny/0MY04

#Steelers CB Joe Haden sustained a foot injury and is questionable to return to today's game.

On third-and-8 from the 9, the league's worst red-zone defense forgot to cover James Washington in the end zone. Gross.

#Steelers G Kevin Dotson suffered an ankle injury and is OUT for the remainder of today's game.

Steelers inactives today for the game against the Lions are WR Chase Claypool, CB Ahkello Witherspoon, RB Anthony McFarland, LB Buddy Johnson and OL B.J. Finney. Zach Banner gets a helmet for the first time this year. Roethlisberger doesn't count since he's on the COVID List.

Of the #Lions 229 rushing yards today, #Steelers coach Mike Tomlin says, "Their running ability had a lot to do w/ our tackling - or lack thereof."

#Steelers G Trai Turner sustained an ankle injury and is questionable to return to today's game.

Bad call on Dan Moore Jr. Hands inside = no holding

It's a touchback. Steelers will take over at their own 20. Smart play by Ray-Ray McCloud. Lions player tossed the ball back toward field of play. At that point, the offense can touch it without worrying about a muff.

In 2017, we dedicated a Chair of Honor to POWs & those MIA. Today, @steelers President Art Rooney II, VP of Stadium Ops Jimmie Sacco, @Senatorcosta, @SenWilliamsPA, @SenRobinsonPA, @WayneDFontana, & @USNavy RAMD Thomas Anderson held a special presentation honoring #VeteransDay. pic.twitter.com/JAf77FUBLn

Cam Heyward went in the blue medical tent with TJ Watt, as did DC Keith Butler. Watt is out and remains on the sideline with a helmet.

How about that: a fullback reception. You already know I'm here for more Derek Watt in the offense.

Minkah Fitzpatrick is up and walking off the field after being looked at by trainers.

And it is Taco Charlton in for TJ Watt to start this defensive series.

Trai Turner isn't on the field for the Steelers. Joe Haeg and JC Hassenauer are the guards.

Nice tackle by James Pierre. For as bad as the tackling's been today, he's had a couple nice ones.

And Tyson Alualu. The huge run stuffing NT is criminally underrated. #Steelers (And as I type this, #Lions RB D'Andre Swift crosses the 100-yard rushing line…) twitter.com/chrismuellerpg…

According to NFL Network reporters Tom Pelissero and Ian Rapoport, members of the NFL officiating department have acknowledged multiple calls in last weeks’ Pittsburgh Steelers game the officials missed that favorited the Steelers over the Bears.

In the article, it notes three in particular including a late hit by outside linebacker Alex Highsmith on Bears quarterback Justin Fields. There’s no doubt according to the rule this should have been flagged for a roughing penalty.

But none of them were. And honestly, so what? The Steelers have been on the wrong end of horrible officiating just as many times as they have ever benefited from inept officiating. Such is the state of the NFL. The league has no intention of ever changing how it officiates games so we circle right back to here. Officiating is inept but not corrupt

Tre Norwood nearly had a pick there. Instead it is 4th-and-23. One way or another, this mercifully can't go on longer than 1:47.
