With the exception of outside linebacker T.J Watt, the Pittsburgh Steelers will go with the same group Sunday against the New England Patriots that took the field in the season opener at Cincinnati.

The list of players in the inactives list for the home opener is virtually the same as the previous week. Quarterback Mason Rudolph, guard Kendrick Green, receiver Steven Sims, defensive tackle Isaiahh Loudersmilk and linebacker Mark Robinson are inactive, as is newly acquired outside linebacker David Anenih.

The Steelers signed Anenih off Tennessee’s practice squad as a result of Watt’s torn pectoral injury. However, the Steelers will go with Delonte Scott as the fourth outside linebacker. Scott was promoted from the practice squad Saturday.
