Jalen Ramsey 'Expected to Play' on 'Thursday Night Football' With Brutal Injury

Pittsburgh Steelers star cornerback Jalen Ramsey is reportedly "expected to play" in Week 4 despite having a broken wrist.

Thursday Night Football rivalry between the Pittsburgh Steelers and Cleveland Browns promises to be intense, as star cornerback Jalen Ramsey is expected to play despite suffering a broken wrist in Week 3. ESPN senior NFL reporter Jeremy Fowler confirmed Ramsey's participation in the high-stakes game, which comes after the Steelers traded fellow defensive back Joey Porter Jr. to the Dallas Cowboys.
