    Coach Tomlin just finished his press conference and gave the following injury updates:

    He confirmed Ben's MCL sprain and said there was no time table for his return.

    Matt Spaeth has a hand fracture. He's going to get a cast and the team will see how he performs with it.

    James Harrison has a thumb injury, but Tomlin doesn't think it will keep him out of action.

    Ryan Shazier is still nursing his shoulder injury. He has weakness and can't play until he's cleared by doctors. Sounds like he's out for the Ravens game.

    Cortez and McCullers are still nursing their injuries and will their availability is still up in the air.

    Thanks for the update. Ugh on Ben and Shazier.

    Dude needs a Wolverine DNA injection.

    Nothing terribly earth-shattering other than Big Ben, but Spaeth could be something to keep an eye on. He's a big part of our running game.

    The Harrison news made me kind of chuckle. I think Harrison would saw his own thumb off if it meant he could play against the Ravens. :dancing:

    It sounds like a pinched nerve to me. One of the funniest things I have ever seen is when one of our ILBs in high school severely pinched one and his arm was flipping around uncontrolably. It wasn't funny at the time but, it is now.
