Steelers prepare for season opener against Falcons with full roster participation

The Pittsburgh Steelers held a full-team practice session on Monday, signaling a healthy roster ahead of their upcoming regular season opener against the Atlanta Falcons. Head coach Mike McCarthy confirmed the team's positive health status, stating he does not expect any players to have difficulty preparing for the Sunday matchup. Several rostered players who missed time over the summer participated in Monday's media-accessible portion of practice, including Jaquan Brisker, Michael Pittman Jr., DK Metcalf, Joey Porter Jr., and Sebastian Joseph-Day. While the team appears physically ready, uncertainty remains regarding the participation of Joey Porter Jr., who has not confirmed his status as he seeks a new contract. Official injury reports for the week are still forthcoming, but the current outlook remains positive for the Steelers as they prepare for the first game of the regular season.
