The Facts:
Ward went through the Steelers' final walk-through without wearing a brace on his ailing knee. He had worn a knee brace earlier in the week but discarded it for Saturday’s walk-through, which was held at half-speed. The Cardinals reported no new injuries on Saturday, with all players participating in their walk-through.

Fantasy Football Diehards Line:
Ward’s status had been one of the few question marks for the Steelers after suffering a sprained knee in the AFC championship game. It now appears to be moot -- certainly in terms of the veteran receiver's availability for Super Bowl XLIII. Ward practiced fully on Thursday and Friday and was listed as probable on Friday’s injury report. ... Meanwhile, Cardinals J.J. Arrington (knee), P Ben Graham (left groin) and defensive end Travis LaBoy (biceps) were listed as questionable Friday but HC Ken Whisenhunt said on Saturday he does not expect any of his players to miss Sunday’s game.
