PITTSBURGH -- Steelers quarterback Russell Wilson was limited in Thursday's practice after reporting tightness in the calf he injured during training camp.

Coach Mike Tomlin wouldn't say when Wilson, 35, informed coaches of the tightness but added the quarterback will get further evaluated out of an abundance of caution.

"His calf got tight, so we wanted to exercise some precaution," Tomlin said. "We'll see what tomorrow looks like and kind of go from there."

Wilson was initially scheduled to speak with the media Thursday afternoon, but he delayed his availability to Friday following the calf aggravation.
