Steelers linebacker LaMarr Woodley has been ruled out of Sunday night’s game against the Ravens with an injured hamstring.
Linebacker James Harrison needs to visit a doctor Saturday to see if he will be allowed to play coming off his fractured orbital. The team lists Harrison as probable.
Also, linebacker James Farrior (calf) has a chance to be in uniform. The final injury report lists him as questionable.
From the defensive side of the ball to the offensive end, wide receiver Hines Ward (ankle) is expected to play. He is considered questionable.
However, guard Doug Legursky (toe) and receiver Emmanuel Sanders (mother’s funeral) both will be out.

If Woodley can play effectively, yes. If not, I’d rest him and the all the wounded veterans and give them two weeks to recuperate. Sylvester and Carter are not Pro Bowl caliber yet, but they are faster than an injury-slowed Woodley. If the goal is to get to the Super Bowl, having our vets healthy after the bye week is more important than beating the Ravens today. However, if we play the same aggressive man-to-man D in the secondary today as we did last week, our young defenders will do just fine against Flacco & Co. Look for K. Lewis to have a break out game. He’s due.
