Harmon (knee) is officially questionable to play against the Dolphins on Monday.

Harmon missed Pittsburgh's first two practices this week due to a lingering knee injury, but he was able to log a limited session Saturday to give himself at least a chance to play Monday. If he does take the field, it will end a streak of two straight absences. Harmon has typically logged around a 50 percent defensive snap share when he's suited up this season.

Harrison (concussion) does not carry an injury designation for Monday's Week 15 game against Miami.

Harrison suffered a concussion last Sunday against Baltimore, but he was able to log an LP/LP/FP practice progression this week. His lack of an injury tag on Pittsburgh's final injury report indicates that the veteran linebacker has cleared concussion protocol. Harrison is thus set to take the field against the Dolphins on Monday Night Football.

Benton (ankle) has been cleared of an injury designation for Monday's tilt against the Dolphins.

Benton was limited in practice Friday due to an ankle issue, but he was able to return to full participation Saturday. That clears the way for him to take the field against Miami on Monday Night Football. Benton has yet to miss a regular-season game in his three-year NFL career.

Heyward (knee) does not have an injury designation for Monday's matchup against Miami.

Heyward was added to the injury report Friday due to a knee issue and didn't practice that day. However, he was able to return to full participation Saturday, and he's been cleared to take the field Monday. Heyward has a modest 1.5 sacks through 13 contests this season after logging 8.0 across 17 regular-season games last year.

Skowronek (hand) was not given an injury designation for Monday's clash against Miami.

Skowronek didn't practice Wednesday due to the hand issue, but he was able to finish the week with consecutive limited sessions. Those will be enough for the veteran wideout to take the field against the Dolphins on Monday Night Football. Skowronek has seen most of his work on special teams of late, as he has logged just 13 offensive snaps as opposed to 29 special-teams snaps over the past two weeks.

Robinson (oblique) does not carry an injury designation for Monday's matchup against Pittsburgh, C. Isaiah Smalls II of the Miami Herald reports.

Robinson has been dealing with an oblique issue that resulted in him recording consecutive limited practices to begin this week. However, with a full session under his belt Saturday, the second-year pro is good to go for Monday's contest. Robinson has been on a roll of late, posting 2.5 sacks over his past two games after notching just 1.0 sacks across his first 10 contests of the campaign.

Melifonwu (thumb/groin) does not have an injury designation for Monday's Week 15 clash against the Steelers, C. Isaiah Smalls II of the Miami Herald reports.

A pair of injuries held Melifonwu to consecutive limited practices to begin the week, but he was able to record a full session Saturday. As such, the defensive back is good to go for Monday Night Football. Melifonwu has often worked in a rotational role in the Dolphins' secondary but has logged a snap count above 50 percent in each of the team's past four games.

Jones (knee) does not have an injury designation for Monday's matchup against Pittsburgh, C. Isaiah Smalls II of the Miami Herald reports.

Jones was limited in practice Friday due to a knee issue but was able to log a full session Saturday. That sets him up to take the field against the Steelers on Monday Night Football. Jones has worked as one of Miami's starting cornerbacks in every game so far this season.

Douglas (foot) does not have an injury designation for Monday's battle against Pittsburgh, C. Isaiah Smalls II of the Miami Herald reports.

Douglas upgraded to a full practice Saturday after being limited the first two sessions this week. As such, he is clear of an injury designation and will take the field on Monday Night Football. Douglas should serve in his usual role as Miami's starting slot cornerback.

Washington (concussion) logged a limited practice session Saturday and is questionable for Monday's Week 15 tilt against the Dolphins.

Washington entered concussion protocol during last Sunday's win over Baltimore. He's been able to log three limited practices this week, but he remains iffy to suit up Monday. Washington will need to clear the NFL's five-step protocol ahead of that contest in order to be eligible to play. If he can't do so, Pat Freiermuth will likely see increased offensive snaps as the Steelers' top tight end.
