BALTIMORE (AP) — Minkah Fitzpatrick will miss a third straight game for Pittsburgh as the Steelers try to boost their playoff chances on Saturday in their regular-season finale at Baltimore.

Fitzpatrick had been listed as questionable with a knee injury.

The Ravens, who have already clinched the top seed in the AFC, are resting quarterback Lamar Jackson, receiver Odell Beckham Jr. and cornerback Marlon Humphrey, who is nursing a calf issue. Also inactive for Baltimore are receiver Zay Flowers (calf) and safety Kyle Hamilton (knee).

The Steelers can clinch a playoff spot with a win and a loss by either Buffalo or Jacksonville.
