There was a travel ban in and around Buffalo, but the game against the Buffalo Bills remained set for Monday at 1:00 p.m. ET, later changed to 4:30 p.m. ET.

I’m told Steelers are taking off right now on flight to Buffalo, per source. City will help them get to their hotel.
At last check, the Steelers were still on track to leave Pittsburgh at 3 pm for flight to Buffalo. The Buffalo mayor just said the travel ban is still in effect, so I'm not sure how the Steelers get to their hotel even if they do get in on time.
