Takes full practice reps
Nelson (knee) returned to full participation in practice Thursday, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.
Analysis: 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.
Analysis: 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.
Analysis: Nelson missed Monday's loss to Washington with a knee injury but has apparently healed up since. His full participation Wednesday puts him on pace to suit up Sunday in Buffalo.

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

Listed as doubtful
Nelson (knee) is listed as doubtful for Monday's contest against Washington.
Analysis: 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.
Analysis: 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 injury. 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. Therefore, it's unclear if Nelson will be ready for Week 13.

Solid first season in Pittsburgh
Nelson totaled four tackles (all solo) in Sunday's 28-10 loss to the Ravens.
Analysis: Signed in March, Nelson added stability to the Pittsburgh secondary and finished the 2019 season with 61 tackles, an interception and a fumble recovery in 15 games played. With two years remaining on his current contract, Nelson will return as the starting right cornerback for the Steelers in 2020.

Practices in full
Nelson (groin) was a full participant in Thursday's practice, Brooke Pryor of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Nelson didn't practice Wednesday, but he now appears to have returned to full health. Barring any setbacks, Nelson can be considered on track for Sunday's must-win tilt in Baltimore.

Absent from practice Wednesday
Nelson (groin) did not participate in Wednesday's practice.
Analysis: Nelson saw 58 snaps in Sunday's loss to the Jets, so the severity of the injury is unknown. If he is unable to return to practice before the end of the week, Mike Hilton and Cameron Sutton could be looking at more playing time Week 17.

First interception in loss
Nelsonhad six tackles (all solo) and an interception in Pittsburgh's 17-10 loss to Buffalo on Sunday night.
Analysis: With the Steelers trailing 7-3 late in the second quarter, Nelson picked off quarterback Josh Allen, but Pittsburgh was unable to turn it into points and ultimately saw a six-game win streak against Buffalo snapped. It was Nelson's first interception this season and fifth of his career. The Steelers face Sam Darnold and the Jets in Week 16.
