Off the COVID list Ebron has been activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list.

Impact Ebron landed on the list back on Jan. 2 and sat out the Steelers' regular-season finale against the Browns. In 15 games this past season, the tight end recorded 56 catches (on 91 targets) for 558 yards and five TDs. Now that he's been activated, Ebron should be able to resume his normal role in the offense in Sunday night's playoff opener against Cleveland.

Shifts to COVID-19 list, out Sunday Ebron was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Saturday, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Ebron is considered a high-risk close contact. As long as he continues to test negative, he'll be available for the first round of playoffs. However, the 27-year-old won't play in the season finale against the Browns, and his absence leaves Vance McDonald and Kevin Rader -- a practice squad elevation -- as the team's only tight ends in Week 17.

Scores fifth touchdown vs. Colts Ebron (back) caught five of seven targets for 47 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 28-24 win over the Colts.

Impact Ebron returned from a minor back injury and showed no ill effects as he finished third on the team in targets and fourth in receiving yardage. He scored his fifth touchdown of the season on a five-yard grab in the fourth quarter, giving his fantasy managers a useful final stat line. Ebron should be a full go for next Sunday's regular-season finale against the Browns and will look to add to his solid numbers in an inviting matchup.

Turns in full practice Ebron (back) was a full participant during Thursday's practice, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.

Impact Ebron needed to be carted to the locker room in Monday's loss to the Bengals after exiting the contest with a back injury, but he's seemingly made a rapid recovery. After sitting out Wednesday's session, Ebron took every rep Thursday, putting himself on track to suit up Sunday against the Colts. Look for Ebron to step back in as the Steelers' top tight end, a role that has translated to 51 receptions for 511 yards and four touchdowns over his 14 appearances on the season.

Starts week as DNP Ebron (back) did not practice Wednesday, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.

Impact Ebron reportedly avoided a serious injury during Monday's loss to the Bengals, but it does look like his availability for Week 16 could be in jeopardy. He'll almost certainly need to resume practicing in some capacity for any chance of suiting up versus Indianapolis on Sunday. Vance McDonald could handle an every-down role if Ebron is forced to miss time, considering that Zach Gentry (knee) is already on IR.

Avoids major injury Ebron didn't suffer any structural or organ damage after he was removed from Monday's 27-17 loss to the Bengals following a hard hit to his back/side area, Tom Pelissero of NFL Net...

Impact Ebron played 10 offensive snaps and failed to corral his lone target, which came in the second quarter when he was sandwiched by two defenders as he waited for the ball to arrive. The tight end was in obvious pain as he left the field and headed to the locker room, but follow-up scans have seemingly revealed nothing too concerning. That said, Ebron could have a tough time making it back to action on a short week, with the Steelers set to face the Colts on Sunday. Per Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site, head coach Mike Tomlin said Tuesday that Ebron is still being evaluated, making his status one to monitor as the weekend approaches.

Ruled out for remainder of contest Ebron (back) has been ruled out for remainder of Monday's game against the Bengals, Burt Lauten of the Steelers' official site reports.

Impact Ebron was carted to the locker room during the first half of the game after suffering an apparent back injury. Now that Ebron and Derek Watt (concussion) officially are out, look for Vance McDonald to shoulder the load, as he is the only active tight end or fullback left on the roster.

Suffers back injury Ebron is considered questionable to return after suffering a back injury in Monday's game against the Bengals, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Ebron had to be carted back to the locker room, so any chance of a return is seemingly optimistic at the moment. He was unable to record any receptions prior to exiting. While he's sidelined, look for Vance McDonald to replace Ebron at tight end.

Limited role against Buffalo Ebron secured two of his five targets for 30 yards in Sunday's 26-15 loss to the Bills.

Impact Ebron had been targeted 11 times in each of the past two games, but he was less involved against Buffalo. He wasn't targeted in the red zone for just the third time all season, and he was on the field for a season-low 38 offensive snaps. Ebron faces another favorable matchup against Cincinnati in Week 15, but it's unclear whether his role will pick back up because he's been one of several Steelers to struggle with drops recently.
