PITTSBURGH — Steelers premier pass rusher T.J. Watt, who injured his ankle late against the Philadelphia Eagles last Sunday, was noncommittal about his status for Saturday’s game at the Baltimore Ravens, but he said he felt “pretty good” this week.

“We’ll see Sunday — or Saturday I guess I should say — but I felt pretty good this week,” Watt said Thursday. “Obviously it’s a short week but felt pretty good.”

Watt exited the Week 15 loss to the Eagles with five minutes to play after rolling his ankle. He didn’t participate in Tuesday’s walk-through, but he was upgraded to a limited participant Wednesday and appeared to do even more work on Thursday.

“There’s not a lot of things you do on practice in a short week like this to push it, so I want to see how it feels on Saturday,” Watt said. “But I feel pretty good right now.”
