What is the story about?
After missing practice Sunday with an upper-body injury, Steelers defensive tackle Keeanu Benton seems to have avoided something serious, participating in Monday’s practice with a wrap on his left arm.
Per Steelers Now’s Brendan Howe:
With rookie defensive tackle Derrick Harmon expected to miss several weeks and at least one game with an MCL injury he suffered in the team’s preseason finale, Benton’s
health status has become all the more important to the Steelers’ starting defense.
Benton is listed as Pittsburgh’s starting nose tackle.
The Steelers have just under two weeks until their season opener, a Sept. 7 matchup against the Jets in New York.
