Pittsburgh Steelers cornerback Arthur Maulet (No. 35) stands in front of teammates emerging from the tunnel onto the field before a game earlier this season. Maulet missed this past week’s game while on the covid-19 list and did not practice Thursday. On the league-mandated injury report, it was listed as because of illness.

As the Pittsburgh Steelers’ covid list continues to grow, so does its injury report.

Thursday’s injury report noted that nickel cornerback Arthur Maulet did not practice because of illness. Maulet missed Monday’s win against the Cleveland Browns because he was on the covid-19 list but was removed from the list Wednesday.

Three starters and one assistant coach have been added to the covid list since, including center Kendrick Green. Two other starting offensive linemen who did not finish the Browns game because of injury have yet to practice at all this week: right guard Trai Turner (knee) and left tackle Dan Moore Jr. (ankle).

One practice remains before Sunday’s regular-season finale at the Baltimore Ravens.

A starter who missed Wednesday’s practice returned to full participation Thursday. Safety Terrell Edmunds has a groin injury.

Rookie backup linebacker Buddy Johnson continues to sit out practice and appears likely to miss a fourth consecutive game because of a foot injury.
