Steelers' Ben Skowronek: Idle for Wednesday's practice
Skowronek (calf) did not practice Wednesday, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.
Skowronek was unable to play against the Buccaneers in Week 6 due to a calf injury that he sustained during the Steelers' Week 5 win over the Colts. He'll have two more chances to log at least a limited practice ahead of Sunday's game against the Saints in Paris.

Steelers' Ben Skowronek: Already ruled out for Week 6
Head coach Mike McCarthy said Monday that Skowronek (calf) will not play against the Buccaneers this Sunday, Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com reports.
Skowronek was diagnosed with a leg injury during the Steelers' 34-22 win over the Colts, which he picked up after a punt return in the first half. He was unable to return to the contest, and his calf issue will cost him at least one game, with his next chance to play being Week 7 against the Saints in Paris on Sunday, Oct. 25. Roman Wilson (finger) has also been ruled out for Week 6, so rookie second-rounder Germie Bernard, Kaden Wetjen and Brandon Smith are all in line for additional snaps on offense against Tampa Bay.

Steelers' Ben Skowronek: Questionable to return in Week 5
Skowronek (leg) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Colts, Jake Arthur of Roundtable.io reports.
Skowronek was injured during a Steelers punt and is now in danger of missing the remainder of the Week 5 meeting with Indianapolis. The 29-year-old logged only eight offensive snaps in the Week 4 loss to the Browns, though his departure from the contest, even if it's brief, will be felt on special teams.

Steelers' Ben Skowronek: Notches TD in Week 3
Skowronek hauled in his lone target for a 23-yard touchdown during Sunday's 30-27 win over the Bengals.
Skowronek ranked fifth among Steelers receivers by playing 11 of the team's 62 offensive snaps, but the 29-year-old was able to connect with quarterback Aaron Rodgers on a pass to the end zone during his limited time on the field. Despite coming up with a big play in the Week 3 win, Skowronek remains likely to see most of his field time on special teams moving forward.

Steelers' Ben Skowronek: Clears concussion protocol
Skowronek (concussion) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.
Skowronek was placed in concussion protocol at the end of August after the wide receiver suffered a head injury in the Steelers' 28-27 preseason loss to the Bills. The 29-year-old progressed through the entirety of the league's five-step protocol and was cleared by an independent neurologist before Wednesday's first official practice.

Steelers' Ben Skowronek: Placed in concussion protocol
Skowronek suffered a concussion in Thursday's 28-27 preseason loss to the Bills, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.
Skowronek has entered the NFL's five-step concussion protocol. The wide receiver will need to be cleared by an independent neurologist to ultimately be cleared for game action. If the 29-year-old cannot recover from the injury by the Steelers' Week 1 showdown with the Falcons, Kaden Wetjen projects to fill the No. 5 wide receiver role.

Steelers' Ben Skowronek: Quiet during 2025 regular season
Skowronek secured four of six targets for 69 yards and a touchdown while appearing in all 17 regular-season games in 2025.
Skowronek had a 22-yard touchdown reception in the Steelers' Week 1 win over the Jets, but his production went downhill from there. He failed to garner multiple targets in any of his regular-season appearances, and he was forced to play mainly on special teams during his fifth professional campaign. The 2021 seventh-rounder will be an unrestricted free agent during the offseason, and it wouldn't be surprising to see him seek out other opportunities after being held under 70 receiving yards in each of his two seasons in Pittsburgh.

Steelers' Ben Skowronek: Cleared for Sunday
Skowronek (illness/hand) doesn't have an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Lions, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.
Similar to last week, Skowronek managed to log a full practice on the final day of the week to be cleared of any injury designation heading into gameday. This marks consecutive weeks that the wide receiver will play through a hand injury. The 28-year-old played just four offensive snaps last week with no targets, making his living on 65 percent of special teams snaps. This week will likely be no different for Skowronek, who sits behind DK Metcalf, Calvin Austin, Adam Thielen, and Marquez Valdes-Scantling on the wide receiver depth chart.
