Steelers' Doneiko Slaughter: Past hamstring injury
Rotowire
Slaughter (hamstring) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.
Slaughter was unable to play against the Browns in Week 8 due to a hamstring injury that prevented him from practicing. His ability to log a full session Wednesday puts him on track to play against the Bengals on Sunday, when he's expected to play mostly on special teams while providing the Steelers depth in the secondary.

Rotowire
Slaughter (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Browns, Mike DeFabo of The Athletic reports.
Slaughter was held out of practice all week due to hamstring injury, which he may have picked up during the Steelers' Week 7 win over the Saints. The second-year pro's absence means Pittsburgh will have one less contributor on special teams, and with the team on a bye for Week 9, Slaughter's next chance to play is Week 10 against the Bengals on Sunday, Nov. 15.
