Artie Burns has been stuck to the bench since Week 6.
He might be making his return this weekend.
Multiple media reports have indicated Burns has worked with the first-team defense this week. It’s unclear if he will start against the New England Patriots but if that’s the case, Burns is ready for it.
“Burns could work his way onto the field, and even into the starting lineup, Sunday, when the Steelers host the New England Patriots, multiple players confirmed Thursday.”
Burns mixed in with the first team during Wednesday’s practice, per The Athletic.
