Ramsey Expected to Play Against Browns Despite Wrist Injury

Pittsburgh Steelers cornerback Jalen Ramsey was expected to play against the Cleveland Browns on Thursday night despite a broken wrist suffered in Week 3, according to ESPN reporter Jeremy Fowler. A separate pregame preview listed Ramsey as questionable, and the available reports do not confirm whether he ultimately took the field. The Week 4 AFC North matchup brought together the Steelers and Browns, both 2-1, with all four teams in the division carrying the same record, according to the pregame coverage. The game was scheduled for Thursday, October 1, in Cleveland. The supplied reports contain no final score, so they do not establish the outcome. Ramsey’s status was a key question for Pittsburgh’s secondary after the team traded cornerback Joey Porter Jr. to the Dallas Cowboys on Thursday morning, according to one preview. Ramsey had played every one of Pittsburgh’s 172 defensive snaps through the first three games of the season, that report said. His wrist injury came in Week 3, when the Steelers defeated the Cincinnati Bengals 30-27.
