PITTSBURGH — A key Steelers player is back at practice Wednesday.
The Steelers said Pat Friermuth is joining the team for practice, but he remains on the injured reserve at this time.
The team has 21 days to return him to the active roster or else he misses the rest of the 2023 season.
Head coach Mike Tomlin at a press conference Tuesday said he feels good about Freiermuth’s “potential availability” for the upcoming game against the Cleveland Browns.
