Brown was listed as questionable to play in the Steelers’ must-win Will Harris Jersey , regular-season finale at home against Cincinnati on Sunday. He missed all three practices this week with a knee injury, and coach Mike Tomlin said the team sent Brown for further evaluation on Friday.Tomlin said Brown first began experiencing knee discomfort following the team’s loss last Sunday at New Orleans. He caught 14 passes for 185 yards and two touchdowns in that game.“I gave him a (veteran’s day off) Wednesday like I give to a lot of guys,” Tomlin said. “(He) got in here (Thursday) and didn’t feel comfortable enough to do it. We sent him for tests (Friday). We’ll get the results of those tests and have more information.”Tomlin didn’t rule Brown out of Sunday’s game.“Obviously, he’s a veteran player,” Tomlin said. “If it gets better, there’s not a lot of physical repetition needed to perform. We’ll see where all of that goes.”Brown missed the final two regular-season games in 2017 with a calf injury, but he returned in a home playoff loss against Jacksonville to catch seven passes for 132 yards and two touchdowns. He also missed a playoff game at Denver in 2016 with a concussion. Before last season, Brown hadn’t missed a regular-season game because of injury since 2012.Pittsburgh needs a win against Cincinnati and help from the Cleveland Browns to continue its season. The Steelers would win the AFC North for a third straight year and qualify for the playoffs for a fifth consecutive season if Pittsburgh wins and Cleveland defeats the Baltimore Ravens on the road.Having Brown would certainly help.Brown, a four-time All-Pro, leads the NFL with a single-season franchise record of 15 touchdown receptions. He’s also tied for seventh in the league with 104 receptions and ninth with 1 http://www.lionscheapstore.com/austin-bryant-jersey-cheap ,297 yards receiving.Brown needs six catches on Sunday to reach 110 receptions for the fourth time in his career, the second-most such seasons in NFL history. He is three yards from becoming the sixth player with five or more 1,300-yard receiving seasons and 103 yards away from being the third player who has five or more seasons with 1,400 yards.More pressing for the Steelers is continuing their historic run of making the playoffs.“I don’t care about anything but winning this football game,” quarterback Ben Roethlisberger said. “Because nothing matters if you don’t.”NEW KICKERIf the Steelers reach the playoffs, embattled kicker Chris Boswell won’t be with them. The Steelers placed Boswell on injured reserve and signed Matt McCrane on Friday.“(Boswell) experienced some discomfort Sunday in the game (against New Orleans),” Tomlin said. “His usual work day is Thursday, so we waited to see the ramifications. He was a full participant (Thursday), but felt some discomfort after, and we thought it was necessary to make a move.”The Steelers signed Boswell to a contract extension in August after he made 85 of 95 field goals in three seasons http://www.packerscheapstore.com/rashan-gary-jersey-cheap , including three game-winners last season, but he has struggled in 2018. Boswell has missed seven field-goal attempts and five extra points.McCrane tried out with the Steelers after Boswell missed two kicks in a loss at Oakland earlier this month. McCrane appeared in four games this season with Arizona and Oakland, converting 5 of 9 field goals and all five extra points.McCrane said Friday he was playing golf when he received his call from the Steelers. He worked out for the first time at Heinz Field following Friday’s practice.“It’s been crazy, it really has,” McCrane said. “I got here late last night, had a couple delays, but I’m excited to get here and get going. It’s been a whirlwind for sure.”NOTES: Pro Bowl RB James Conner, who missed the last three games with an ankle injury, is listed as questionable after fully practicing this week. … LB Vince Williams (toe) is doubtful and S Sean Davis (quad) is questionable for Sunday’s game. HOUSTON (AP) — The Houston Texans moved closer to clinching the AFC South by bouncing back from last week’s loss with a win over the Jets.Now they’ll try to get banged-up players DeAndre Hopkins and Lamar Miller healthy before visiting the Super Bowl champion Eagles next week. A win could leave open the possibility of getting a first-round playoff bye.The Texans (10-4) have won nine of their last 10 games after opening the season 0-3 to give coach Bill O’Brien 10 regular-season wins for the first time in his five years with the team. It’s the first time the Texans have had 10 wins in the regular season since setting a franchise-record with 12in 2012.“It’s great. I think 10 wins is hard to do in this league,” O’Brien said. “I give our players and our coaching staff a ton of credit. Our players have worked very hard to get to this point in the season. There is a long way to go here.”The Texans led by 13 at halftime before the Jets rallied to take a 22-19 lead with 5:00 left in the fourth quarter. Deshaun Watson then connected with DeAndre Hopkins on a 14-yard touchdown to put the Texans on top Darnell Savage Jr. Jersey , and they added a field goal after that to secure the 29-22 victory.Hopkins injured his ankle in the fourth quarter and had to be helped off the field by teammates. But he returned after that and the injury doesn’t appear serious.Miller could be more of a concern after he hurt his ankle in the first quarter and returned for a series in the second before sitting out for the rest of the game. O’Brien said he doesn’t think the injury is “major,” but that he’d know more next week.With Miller out on Saturday, Houston’s only other active running back was Alfred Blue. Blue, who has been used this season to spell Miller, was ineffective against the Jets, finishing with nine carries for 6 yards.If Miller is limited next week, the Texans could look to D’Onta Foreman to pick up the slack. Foreman was put on the active roster from the physically unable to perform on Dec. 4, but has been inactive in the two games since.Foreman has been out since Nov. 19, 2017 when he tore his Achilles tendon after running for 327 yards and two touchdowns in his rookie season. O’Brien said they put him on the active roster because they thought he’d be able to help the team this season. He’s been participating fully in practice, but it’s unclear if he’s ready to contribute in a game.Another concern for the Texans this week is finding a way to better protect Watson. The second-year quarterback was taken down six times Saturday and has been sacked 52 times this season http://www.packerscheapstore.com/elgton-jenkins-jersey-cheap , most in the NFL.“There is no doubt that there were too many sacks, absolutely no doubt about it,” O’Brien said. “But … I don’t put all of that on the offensive line. Some of that is offensive line, some of it is route running, some of it is holding the ball too long, things like that. Some of it is play calling, and so hopefully we can get better.”Despite the sacks Watson had another solid game, throwing for 294 yards and two touchdowns. It was the most yards he’s thrown for since finishing with 375 yards passing in a win over Dallas on Oct. 7.His performance on Saturday made him the first player in NFL history to have at least 5,000 yards passing (5,291) Jace Sternberger Jersey , 40 TD passes (43) and 700 yards (705) rushing in his first 21 games.On a day the Texans had trouble running the ball, Watson reveled in being able to lead the team to the comeback win.“I just like the ball in my hands,” he said. “Like they say, just give me an opportunity to make a play. I think I can make it. Be smart, try not take any unnecessary hits and protect myself. I feel like with the ball in my hands, I can give the team a lot of energy and this offense can go.”Despite their impressive turnaround to reach double-digit wins so beginning the season 0-3, the Texans know they’ll have to maintain focus.“That’s awesome, but our goals are still ahead of us,” Hopkins said. “We can’t sit here and celebrate 10 wins. We expect to win like this with the guys we have in this locker room.”
