Report: Steelers T Marcus Gilbert Still Laboring With Ankle Injury

Even though he practiced all three days this past week, Pittsburgh Steelers tackle Marcus Gilbert will miss his third-straight game Sunday with an ankle injury.

According to a Sunday morning radio report by Gerry Dulac of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, Gilbert is still laboring with his injured ankle.

Another thing to keep in mind, according to Dulac, is that the Steelers will play the Atlanta Falcons Sunday in the Georgia Dome and that FieldTurf playing surface is not very friendly to players with feet and ankle injuries.

With Gilbert down again, Mike Adams will make his third-straight start at right tackle. In addition, guard Chris Hubbard will get a helmet once again as a seventh offensive lineman.
