Pittsburgh Steelers vs. New York Giants: NFL Week 8, live updates

PITTSBURGH — The Pittsburgh Steelers will welcome the New York Giants for Monday Night Football in a clash before the Steelers’ bye week. At 5-2, the Steelers can take sole possession of the AFC North lead with a win over the Giants after the Baltimore Ravens’ stunning loss to the Cleveland Browns.

However, they will have to work through Dexter Lawrence and Brian Burns. The Giants will miss three cornerbacks in this game, but their elite front remains intact. Lawrence leads the NFL in sacks with nine, and will face backup center Ryan McCollum, who hopes to slow down the Defensive Player of the Year candidate.

When: 8:15 p.m

Where: Acrisure Stadium, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

The Steelers will play with Russell Wilson starting at quarterback for their second straight game. Wilson led the Steelers offense to a 37-point explosion against the Jets on Sunday Night Football.

Meanwhile, the defense will lock horns with an ailing Giants offense that has scored just 10 points combined over the last two weeks.
