Steelers safety Kyle Dugger is out for Sunday’s game at Baltimore with a hand injury.
Jalen Ramsey was limited on Friday after having rest days the last two days.

Arrington says Jay Paterno was using Terry Smith as a pawn for his real agenda, clearing Joe’s name.
“What is it exactly does he want to happen so he can leave us alone? I just wish Jay Paterno & Lubrano could go somewhere & never come back to the Penn State community.”

They could have NOT fired the guy who went 34-8 over the last three seasons & was two plays away from the national championship game last year.
They also could have hired any number of coaches who have since been hired elsewhere.
