We are still awaiting word on whether Pittsburgh Steelers QB Russell Wilson will play in their next preseason game. We should hear from head coach Mike Tomlin shortly, who will likely announce his decision at that time. While he still doesn’t know if he is going to play, though, Wilson is fearlessly ready for the workload.
Wilson injured his calf during the Steelers’ conditioning test, and he is technically still not “all the way back”. While he is participating significantly more in practice, he has yet to take on the whole of true first-string reps. He insists this is the team being extremely cautious, however, which he doesn’t plan to be in any heightened way once he is back inside a stadium.
