Injury roundup: JuJu Smith-Schuster expected to play

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster (hamstring) is a game-time decision, but should be good to go, sources tell NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport.

The rookie out of Southern Cal has 37 receptions and five touchdowns this season.

Cornerback Joe Haden (fibula) is also considered a game-time decision, but based on how he performed in practice, the team believes he can go, according to Rapoport.

The veteran from Florida has 20 career interceptions, but just one this season in nine games.

The 11-2 Steelers play host to the 10-3 New England Patriots at Heinz Field this afternoon in Pittsburgh.
