Steelers' Ben Skowronek: Won't play against Cleveland
Skowronek (calf) is inactive against the Browns on Sunday.
Skowronek will end up missing a third consecutive game due to a calf injury, and with the Steelers on a bye for Week 9, his next chance to play is Week 10 against the Bengals on Sunday, Nov. 15. Kaden Wetjen, Brandon Smith and Brandon Johnson are in line for more snaps on offense in Skowronek's absence.

Steelers' Ben Skowronek: Questionable for Week 8
Skowronek (calf) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Browns, Mike DeFabo of The Athletic reports.
Skowronek strung together three consecutive limited practices while working through a calf injury, which has prevented him from playing in each of the Steelers' last two games. His status for Sunday's AFC North may become more clear depending on whether the Steelers elect to elevate Brandon Johnson from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.

Steelers' Ben Skowronek: Logs another limited practice
Skowronek (calf) practiced in a limited capacity Thursday, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.
Skowronek has missed each of Pittsburgh's past two games due to the calf issue. His ability to begin Week 8 prep with consecutive limited sessions gives the veteran wideout a chance to return Sunday versus Cleveland, though he'll likely carry a designation into the weekend if he's not able to log a full session Friday. When healthy this season, Skowronek has seen limited opportunities on offense, recording just three catches for 32 yards and a touchdown on four targets through five contests.

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: 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.
