Questionable for Sunday Reed (back) was added to the injury report Saturday and is questionable for Sunday's game against the Falcons.

Impact Reed's status for Sunday's game is now in doubt despite being a full participant in practice throughout the week. The Steelers could be very thin at outside linebacker, as T.J. Watt is also questionable with a rib injury, and if either can't play it would likely lead to Alex Highsmith and Jamir Jones getting more playing time.

Suiting up Sunday Reed (personal) is listed as active for Sunday's game against the Saints, Chris Adamski of Trib Live reports.

Impact Reed was originally listed as questionable to play in Sunday's contest versus New Orleans due to personal reasons, but it appears like he'll be able to give it a go in Week 10. The 26-year-old will likely give up some snaps to last year's Defensive Player of the Year T.J. Watt, who's suiting up for the first time since the team's season opener due to knee and pectoral issues.

Availability uncertain Reed is questionable to play Sunday against the Saints due to personal reasons, Missi Matthews of the Steelers' official site reports.

Impact Reed was excused for personal reasons during practice Thursday and was listed as a limited participant Friday, though the nature of this issue is still unclear. The 26-year-old has played a prominent role over eight games for Pittsburgh this season, recording 18 tackles, one sack and two passes defended while playing 300 defensive snaps. However, with star outside linebacker T.J. Watt (knee) expected to play for the first time since Week 1, Reed's usage could take a dip even if he is ultimately available to play against New Orleans.
