Browns, Steelers injuries: 1 from CLE, 4 from PIT do not practice

The Cleveland Browns and Pittsburgh Steelers renew a rivalry that has been going on for ages, and has been mostly one-sided since The Return in 1999, in Week 6 of the 2025 NFL season. To the surprise of some, the Steelers sit atop the AFC North and are coming off their bye week. To the surprise of very few, the Browns are struggling at the bottom of the division and are coming off a trip overseas.

Pittsburgh has the rest advantage, but Cleveland might be slightly healthier with fewer DNPs, based on Wednesday’s first injury report for the two teams for Week 6.

Interesting to see a few rest days for Pittsburgh veterans coming off their bye week, but Slay, Watt and Heyward are longstanding veterans who need very little practice time to be ready to perform. Austin and Ramsey being out after the bye is notable.
