Doesn't look good for Ward

Though Hines Ward remains optimistic, it's unlikely he'll play Sunday in Arizona.

That would mean Nate Washington would likely get the start against the Cardinals.

Sean Mahan has a better chance to play, but the Steelers are working on contingency plans. Kendall Simmons took all the snaps with the first-team offense at center, with Chris Kemoeatu was at right guard.

How did Kendall look? Are we in trouble if Mahan can't make it through the game? I imagine Stapleton got some work too??

Thanks for the updates.

Stapleton worked primarily with the second team. As for how they looked, realize that there's very little real blocking during regular season practices.

Didnt you post that Chucky latched on with Zona?

Oh the irony....

Chukky was inactive for the Cardinals.
