"Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker LaMarr Woodley is extremely doubtful to play in Thursday night's game against the Cleveland Browns because of a lingering hamstring injury, according to a league source.

Woodley sat out of the team's practice on Tuesday, a day after Steelers coach Mike Tomlin said the linebacker "might be in play" against the Browns. Tomlin told reporters Woodley "felt a little tweak" in his hamstring but didn't do any major damage in last Sunday's win over Cincinnati."
