Buggs (illness) practiced fully Friday and doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's wild-card round game against the Browns, Steelers team reporter Missi Matthews reports.
Buggs was unable to practice Thursday due to this illness but was able to make a prompt recovery. The backup defensive lineman will make his playoff debut Sunday.
Buggs (undisclosed) was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Monday.
The 24-year-old landed on the COVID-19 list over the weekend, but he's now cleared league protocols. Buggs should return to his usual role as a rotational nose tackle for Pittsburgh.
Buggs (undisclosed) was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Saturday.
Buggs will be unavailable until he clears the league's virus-related protocols. Henry Mondeaux and Carlos Davis should play increased roles Tuesday against the Ravens with Stephon Tuitt also on the COVID-19 list.
Buggs (ankle) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.
Buggs sat out last Sunday's game against the Bengals but appears good to go moving forward. The second-year nose tackle out of Alabama doesn't offer much on the stat sheet as a backup to Tyson Alualu, as he's recorded just 10 tackles (seven solo) through seven games.
Buggs (ankle) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Bengals, Dale Lolley of DKPittsburghSports.com reports.
The 24-year-old was considered questionable with the ankle injury but won't be available for Sunday's contest. Buggs made his first career start last week with Tyson Alualu (knee) sidelined, but Alualu is back in action this week and should reclaim his starting role.
Buggs (ankle) is considered questionable for Sunday's game versus the Bengals, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.
Buggs made his first career start last week with Tyson Alualu (knee) on the sidelines, and he recorded three solo tackles with a 39 percent snap share. Alualu will return this Sunday, so Buggs will revert to a reserve role if he's able to shake off the ankle injury in time. He's on the right track after logging two straight limited practice sessions.
Buggs had one tackle (solo) in Sunday's 28-10 loss to the Ravens.
The rookie finishes the 2019 season with three tackles in nine games. Buggs is part of a strong defensive unit that ranked first in the league in sacks (54) and takeaways (38) but offers little individual fantasy value heading in to 2020.
The Steelers selected Buggs in the sixth round of the 2019 NFL Draft, 192nd overall.
The Alabama defensive tackle began his collegiate career at a junior college before heading to Tuscaloosa in 2017. He's a solid athlete as a 306-pounder who ran a 5.15 in the 40-yard dash. Buggs was disruptive next to Quinnen Williams in 2018 as he racked up 51 total tackles, 13.5 tackles for loss and 9.5 sacks. He'll add interior depth to the Steelers' defensive line.
