Pittsburgh Steelers will be shorthanded on receiving targets against Baltimore Ravens

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Ben Roethlisberger is expected to be without two receivers for Sunday's AFC North showdown against the visiting Baltimore Ravens.

Tight end Ladarius Green (concussion) and wide receiver Sammie Coates (hamstring) are both listed as doubtful for the Steelers (9-5), who own a one-game lead over the Ravens (8-6) for first place in the division.

Green, who did not make his season debut until Week 10, was hurt in last week's come-from-behind victory at Cincinnati. He had 13 receptions and a touchdown over the past three games.

Coates has only two receptions since injuring his left index finger in Week 5 against the New York Jets. He hurt his hamstring last week against the Bengals.

Jesse James, who started most of the season while Green was injured, is expected to start at tight end against the Ravens. He is fourth on the team with 33 catches.

Pittsburgh will wrap up the division title with a victory on Sunday, but Baltimore will move into the driver's seat with a win, having defeated the Steelers 21-14 on Nov. 6.
