You're tuned in to Sports Desk, let's get into it.
In Pittsburgh, head coach Mike McCarthy is keeping his cards close to the chest when it comes to cornerback Joey Porter Junior. McCarthy wouldn't commit to any kind of timeline for Porter's return to the field, leaving the Steelers secondary situation murky heading into what's shaping up to be a critical stretch of the season.
Meanwhile in Kansas City, the Chiefs are making moves ahead of Monday night, elevating defensive tackle Marcus Harris and fullback Ben VanSumeren to the active roster. Kansas City isn't leaving anything to chance, and those depth additions signal the Chiefs are buttoning everything up as they prepare to take the field under the lights.
And over in Atlanta, the Falcons are dealing with some significant injury news. Right guard Chris Lindstrom has entered concussion protocol, which is a real blow to an offensive line that needs its anchor up front. Worse still, defensive tackle Da'Shawn Hand is done for the year, a tough blow to a defense that can't afford to keep absorbing these kinds of losses.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
