"PITTSBURGH -- The Steelers' defense will be closer to full strength as they take on the Chicago Bears and quarterback Caleb Williams. Both defensive tackle Cam Heyward and cornerback Darius Slay were upgraded from their previous game designation of questionable and no longer have a designation for Sunday's game. Both are expected to play, the team announced following Saturday's walkthrough."
"Heyward and Slay were each limited in Friday's practice. Heyward sustained an ankle injury and was spotted in a boot after practice, while Slay got a partial rest day as he continued to work through the concussion protocol. While the defense got some concrete good news, quarterback Aaron Rodgers remains questionable with his fractured left wrist. Rodgers was a partial participant in practice on Thursday and Friday after missing Wednesday's work."
