PITTSBURGH — This article originally appeared on steelersnow.com.

The Pittsburgh Steelers are leaving the door open for three players to return from injury for their Week 18 regular-season finale against the Baltimore Ravens on Saturday.

Free safety Minkah Fitzpatrick, inside linebacker Elandon Roberts and strong safety Trenton Thompson could all work their way back throughout the practice week, though they are expected to be limited at the outset.

Fitzpatrick has missed the team’s last two games with a left knee injury he suffered in the second quarter against the Indianapolis Colts on Dec. 16. He has yet to return to practice with the team, though he did resume running at practice on Friday.
