Tomlin Says Calvin Austin, Jalen Ramsey Could Rejoin Practice Later This Week
Both opened the week as non-participants following Week 4 injuries versus Minnesota.
Overview
- Mike Tomlin said the two starters have been highly aggressive in rehab during the bye and will be monitored day-to-day.
- The coach indicated they would be limited at first and might be included toward the latter part of the week.
- Wednesday’s official injury report listed Calvin Austin (shoulder) and Jalen Ramsey (hamstring) as did not participate.
- An upgrade to limited by week’s end could keep a Week 7 Thursday night visit to Cincinnati in play, according to the team’s outlook.
- Earlier expectations pointed to multi-game absences, so any practice progress would affect Pittsburgh’s depth at receiver and cornerback.
