The Pittsburgh Steelers are now on their bye week and following a Tuesday practice, the team won’t likely have another session until Monday or Tuesday of next week. Come Wednesday, it will be interesting to see if the steelers allow defensive end Stephon Tuitt to resume practicing as a designated-to-return player. On Tuesday, steelers head coach Mike Tomlin was asked to provide an update on Tuitt.
“He’s still on IR and working hard and making progress,” Tomlin said. “How close he is to returning to play? I do not have the answer to that as I stand here right now.
