The game will be nationally broadcast on NBC and streamed online on the LiveExtra app. The game will also be broadcast nationally on the Westwood One Sports radio channel.

A slew of Steelers will sit out the game, including Ben Roethlisberger, Le'Veon Bell, and Antonio Brown. The Viking will also rest Adrian Peterson.
