Steelers rookie center Maurkice Pouncey didn’t wear a walking boot on his sprained left ankle, nor did he use crutches before the team left its Fort Worth hotel Wednesday for practice at Texas Christian University according to NFL.com.
However, Pouncey will not practice, and he told NFL Network reporter Albert Breer that if he doesn’t go Friday, he won’t play in Sunday’s Super Bowl against the Green Bay Packers.
“If I’m not on the field Friday, most likely I’m not playing,” Pouncey said, adding that it’s his thought, not something he has been told by the Steelers’ coaching staff. “I’m not going to put the team in a bad position.”
