The Pittsburgh Steelers running back Rashard Mendenhall’s status is questionable for Sunday’s game against the Cleveland Browns because he is ill and has to be kept away from practice facility with flu-like symptoms.
The first round draft pick of last year took over the starting job from Willie Parker during Sept. 27 game against the Cincinnati Bengals after the Parker injured his left big toe. He ran 165 yards against the San Diego Chargers and 77 yards against the Detroit Lions.
Since Parker has been back from the two-week layoff caused by the toe injury, it is hard to say who will get the majority of the carries on this Sunday’s game against the Browns. According to offensive coordinator Brue Arians, Mendenhall is expected to return by Friday, and the team will decide on how to split playing time between Parker and Mendenhall on Sunday.
