Given OK to seek trade The Steelers have given Nelson permission to seek a trade, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Impact Nelson is considered one of the league's more reliable cornerbacks, and the 28-year-old is coming off three consecutive years with at least 15 appearances, so he's also been durable. He'll carry an $8.25 million base salary for 2021, the final season of his three-year deal. Of course, if Nelson does get traded, his next team could work out an extension or contract restructure.

Takes full practice reps Nelson (knee) returned to full participation in practice Thursday, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.

Impact Having improved from limited involvement during Wednesday's practice session, the 27-year-old cornerback is seemingly in the clear for his 16th appearance of the season Sunday night versus Cleveland. Nelson has recorded two interceptions and nine pass breakups for the Steelers this season. However, the seven touchdown passes he's surrendered in coverage are more than the five combined TDs he allowed between 2018 and 2019 over 189 targets.

Limited to start week Nelson (knee) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.

Impact Nelson has dealt with some knee issues this season, but he'll likely do everything in his power to be available for Sunday's wild-card round matchup with the Browns. Barring a setback in practice this week, the starting cornerback should be able to play, as he hasn't missed any game action since sitting out Week 13.

Returns to full practice Nelson (knee) was a full participant in practice Wednesday, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.

Sitting out Monday Nelson (knee) is inactive for Monday's game versus the Football Team.

Impact Cameron Sutton and Mike Hilton should both see more work at cornerback against Alex Smith on Monday. Nelson didn't practice at all during the week, so his status is in question for next week's matchup against the Bills as well.

DECEMBER 7, 2020 • ROTOWIRE

Listed as doubtful Nelson (knee) is listed as doubtful for Monday's contest against Washington.

Impact Nelson has not practiced all week so it seems like all signs are pointing to the safety being unavailable for the prime-time battle. Cameron Sutton and Mike Hilton likely will see a bump in their respective snap counts if Nelson is eventually ruled inactive.

Set for MRI Coach Mike Tomlin said Thursday that Nelson is set to undergo an MRI on his knee, Dale Lolley of DKPittsburghSports.com reports.

Impact Nelson finished Wednesday's game playing 89 percent of the team's defensive snaps, but it appears the team wants to be cautious with the knock. The Oregon State product has been strong this campaign, racking up 31 tackles (27 solo) and two interceptions across 11 games. It will be a quick turnaround for Nelson and the Steelers, as the next game is scheduled for Monday against Washington, so it's unclear if Nelson will be ready for Week 13.
