PITTSBURGH — Pittsburgh Steelers left guard Isaac Seumalo will play against the Cincinnati Bengals in Week 11 on Sunday, despite being listed as questionable with a pectoral injury.

Seumalo was limited at practice this week on Wednesday and Thursday before not practicing on Friday. He missed last Sunday night’s game against the Los Angeles Chargers.

Seumalo first suffered the pectoral injury in Week 9 against the Green Bay Packers. He returned to that game once before being eventually ruled out. Two weeks ago, he practiced only on Friday and in a limited fashion, but was able to start the game against the Indianapolis Colts. He played the first half before being ruled out for the rest of the game in the second half.

Each time Seumalo has missed time this season, he’s been replaced by third-year backup Spencer Anderson. When the team wanted to go to its jumbo offensive line package, it used Andrus Peat at guard, with Anderson out on the edge at tight end. That won’t be possible this week, as Peat is inactive.
