The Pittsburgh Steelers mini bye week is now coming to a close following the team’s 51-21 Thursday night win over the Carolina Panthers and as far as the overall health of the team goes, it looks good, according to updates provided by head coach Mike Tomlin during his Tuesday press conference.
“James Conner is still in the concussion protocol, not that that’s a negative,” Tomlin said on Tuesday. “Part of getting out of the protocol is physical labor. We haven’t worked. He’ll be given an opportunity to work tomorrow and I think will lay all of those discussions to bed.
