Rader wasn't targeted across five snaps on offense in Sunday's 20-16 loss to the Bengals.
The 6-foot-4, 250-pound tight end has seen action in eight games this season and has logged 79 snaps on offense but has yet to draw a single target. He'll continue to be deployed primarily as a blocker whenever he's on the field.

Steelers' Kevin Rader: Two catches during regular season
Rader caught two of three targets for eight yards during the 2021 regular season.
Even though Eric Ebron (knee) missed nine games in 2021, Rader saw minimal playing time while appearing in just six games. He's made just seven appearances across his first two professional seasons and seems unlikely to have a massive uptick in production next year.

Steelers' Kevin Rader: Listed as full participant
Rader (hip) fully participated in Wednesday's practice session, Dale Lolley of DKPittsburghSports.com reports.
Rader was unavailable for Sunday's win over Tennessee due to a hip injury, but he appears to have moved past the issue ahead of Week 16. The tight end has had minimal playing time this year but could see an uptick in playing time Sunday against Kansas City if Pat Freiermuth (concussion) is unavailable.

Steelers' Kevin Rader: Out against Tennessee
Rader (hip) is inactive Week 15 against the Titans.
Rader missed Thursday's practice, which was sandwiched between a pair of limited sessions, causing him to enter the week with a questionable tag. The second-year tight end has served only in a depth role this season, so his absence shouldn't have much of an effect on the Pittsburgh offensive game plan.
