Sean Spence told Scout writer Jim Wexell on Sunday that he’ll miss practice this week due to a broken finger. https://twitter.com/jimwexell/status/392291817393496064
This is bad news for Spence who had a limited window of opportunity to show the coaching staff that he’s ready and able to be activated to the 53 man active roster after next week. While that may have been a long shot without the finger injury, this almost certainly means that he will be sent to IR for the remainder of the season.
The Steelers have announced that they have waived Isaac Redman today. Kion Wilson has been re-signed to fill the available roster spot. Redman was named starter over Jonathan Dwyer after hardly playing this preseason. The release of Redman doesn’t really come as a surprise, or it shouldn’t anyway. The writing has been on the wall. He hasn’t been active on gameday since week 3, and has battled with injury/concussion issues during the first few games. Wilson was added to the practice squad October 11th shortly after being released to sign Sylvester.
For the Steelers:
LB Jarvis Jones, QB Landry Jones, WR Markus Wheaton, CB Curtis Brown, RB Isaac Redman, TE Richard Gordon, and NT Loni Fangupo.
For the Ravens:
LB Bynes, DT Cody, G Reid, C Jensen, OT McKinnie, WR Stokley, DT Tyson.

Jones was cleared to participate in an exercise challenge today and was limited in practice. There is a possibility he could play this Sunday depending on the severity of his concussion and how he progresses. He’ll have to pass concussion tests of course, but Dick LeBeau said he looks pretty good and is optimistic that he’ll be able to play on Sunday.

The team has added WR Devon Wylie to the practice squad today. Wylie was drafted in the fourth round by the Kansas City Chiefs in 2012. He was active for 6 games in 2012, and started in one. He was cut by the Chiefs during the final roster cuts before this season. Shortly after, he was signed to the Cardinals practice squad, before being released recently. The 25 year old receiver is 5’9, 187 lbs and fits the mold of a quick slot receiver. He was also used to field occasional punt returns.
