It was reported that Heyward was in a boot, but I guess it was a tweak and he can he can play through it. Definitely want him out there to stop Swift.

  1. Slay should be taking a back seat to Pierre considering Pierre has looked great filling in. I doubt he will, but he should

  2. The fact that Tomlin said Slay will resume starting if healthy is disgusting given 1) Slay is cooked and 2) what Pierre has done in Slay’s absence. Truly a huge indictment on Tomlin. Elite stupidity.

  3. Now I see why my friend in Fantasy was offering me DJ Moore for D’Vonta Smith this week.

  4. Slay should not be playing even if cleared. He should be behind Pierre, Echols hell even behind Asante if we ever elevate him. Slay is bad, he can’t cover or tackle. Maybe he would be a better safety than corner

  5. Slay needs to hang it..the only Steeler defense backs who played well until retirement was Troy and Joe Haden recently

  6. Tomlin would never play Pierre over Slay, because that’d require Tomlin admitting he made a mistake.

  7. Thank God. I was almost worried for a second that we wouldn’t have Slay in time for his weekly getting burnt by the third string receiver for a touchdown and injury by the 2nd quarter bit.

  8. Something Tomlin does very poorly is deciding upon what personnel changes, though not planned, might actually make the team play better. There’s so much stubborn energy amongst the coaching staff that problems which could easily be solved are allowed to continue and fester, and then when we’ve lost the game everyone’s always like 🤷🏻‍♂️

  9. Darius slay old ass dude should only be playing at free safety when Ramsey needs a breather dude is ass and Pierre is better

  10. Very typical of this sub to get great injury news about our best defensive player and turn it into a thread about how Tomlin can’t assess talent tbh. Lol

  11. Cam being cleared is awesome. Slay worries me because Pierre has looked significantly better and I dont see Tomlin giving Pierre majority of the snaps over Slay

  12. Slay should just be giving Pierre and Echols a break on occasion. Amazing how much better this D is without him on the field
