Information for the Steelers at Eagles inactive players ahead of their Week 3 match up with the Philadelphia Eagles.

In Week 3 of the 2016 NFL season, the Pittsburgh Steelers will visit the Philadelphia Eagles at Lincoln Financial Field. Both teams have started with 2-0 records and will look to stay unbeaten. It should be a great test for the young quarterback Carson Wentz, as he takes on a Steelers team led by veteran QB Ben Roethlisberger.

The Eagles had just a few injuries listed on the NFL report this past week. Probably the biggest name on the list was tight end Zach Ertz, who was listed as questionable due to a rib injury and did not participate in a practice on Wednesday. Other players on the list who were questionable included cornerback Leodis McKelvin and linebacker Mychal Kendricks.

For the Steelers, they have two players listed as out: Tight end Ladarius Green has an ankle injury that will have him out until Week 7 against the Patriots, while cornerback Senquez Golson is also out. Questionable players on the list include quarterback Landry Jones, tight end Ladarius Green, defensive end Cameron Heyward, and center Cody Wallace.

The big news is they should have receiver Markus Wheaton back on the field for Big Ben to throw to. This will also be Pittsburgh’s final game of running back Le’Veon Bell’s suspension, so he’ll be back next week. DeAngelo Williams will continue to serve as the main back in this game.
