Conner (shoulder) is not in line to play Sunday against the Colts, Gerry Dulac of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
Conner's status will become official once the Steelers release their Week 9 inactives, but in his anticipated absence, Jaylen Samuels is slated to head the team's backfield Sunday, with Trey Edmunds on hand to serve as the No. 2 option.
