Steelers still in flux on the lines

PITTSBURGH (AP) — The latest version of a revolving-door offensive line satisfied Steelers coach Mike Tomlin Sunday. Good thing, too, as it’s highly possible each will start again this week.

Tomlin said on Tuesday that starting left guard Chris Kemoeatu will be evaluated throughout the week to see if he can practice at full speed after he missed the 24-0 win over Seattle with a knee injury.

Tomlin praised the play of fill-in Ramon Foster as well as that of rookie Marcus Gilbert, who had his first NFL start at right tackle after Willie Colon was placed on injured reserve.

Tomlin also characterized defensive end Brett Keisel as “questionable at best” for Sunday night’s game at Indianapolis (0-2) after he sustained a knee sprain against Seattle.

Ziggy Hood would start at end if Keisel cannot play for the Steelers (1-1).
