WHITE SULPHUR SPRINGS, W.VA. – Pass rush specialist Dwight Freeney, who signed this week, hasn’t practiced in full pads yet, but coaches already have a role defined for him this Sunday against the Steelers.

Asked how Freeney will be involved in practice and the game, coach Bruce Arians replied: “Freeney’s involved now. That’s why we signed him. He rushes the passer. I don’t think you have to teach him that.
