Bryant to Have Elbow Procedure

According to FoxSportscom's Ross Jones, Bryant will undergo a "minor procedure for (an) elbow infection" that is expected to keep him out for 10 days.

Jones also notes that time period will make Bryant unavailable for the Steelers' preseason opener at the Hall of Fame Game against Minnesota on August 9.

While any kind of procedure is going to be a cause for concern, at least Bryant and the Steelers found this soon enough before it could have turned into a bigger issue.
