Alualu, Wormley Discuss Tuitt’s Possible Return; Roles In Defense If Not Ready By Week 1

Will the Pittsburgh Steelers have defensive end Stephon Tuitt back for the team’s Week 1 game against the Buffalo Bills? It certainly is hard to give a definitive answer to that question with less than two weeks remaining, but we do know that Tuitt still has not resumed practicing as of Monday.

While Tuitt has yet to resume practicing, defssiveo tackle Tyson Alualu said after Monday’s practice that he’s still holding out hope that team’s starting defensive end will be ready to play against the Buffalo Bills.

“I feel like Tuitt will be ready come week one,” Alualu said on Monday.
