After missing the first four practices of training camp due to a calf injury, veteran quarterback Russell Wilson returned to practice in a limited fashion Tuesday morning on the first day of pads.
Though he took just two snaps in team 11-on-11 drills, Wilson was a full participant in 7-on-7, which he stated to reporters after practice was part of the plan.
While he is confident when it’s go-time, he will be ready, he is adhering to the plan laid out before him, which head coach Mike Tomlin said is intentional.
Speaking to reporters Tuesday following practice, Tomlin stated he’s slowing down the progress of Russell Wilson in his return.
