True, I just don't think it is smart by him. He might miss a hit and tear the stitches open or something.
No way is that completely healed already.

It is just the small incisions into the abdomen he has to worry about. He may play, but he's not going to like getting hit.
Let's make him pay for this decision it is what we need to do.

Truth, not our fault if he gets hurt really bad cause of this decision.

Makes me glad the game got downgraded from the Sunday Night Game. Already saw Cleveland embarrass the Bengals on Monday Night Football on Halloween night. Steelers don't need the extra motivation from a home game on national TV.
Man, the last game was their Superbowl. This is our Superbowl, make no mistake, we cannot lose this game. Especially
after the Titans getting the win last night and King Henry playing great and having a mini bye to rest up and we play these
guys next. But I agree on having our game getting downgraded, this helps us I think. We play better earlier in the day it
seems than at night.

Although some of the quotes had me cringing:
"The worry is when they cut you open, they cut through muscle, obviously to get into your stomach," he said, also telling ESPN that doctors initially told him it could take 10 days to two weeks to recover. "So you just wanna make sure that that's healed properly before you get out there and go."
Not smart by Minkah, oh well, make him pay.
