What is the story about?

One of the most remarkable parts of the Pittsburgh Steelers success on defense this season is they have done it without defensive tackle Derrick Harmon. Harmon has been on the Reserve/Injured list and missed the last five games. But this week Harmon returned to practice as the team prepares to take on the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday Night Football, there is some hope he could be on the field.

Harmon spoke to the media on Friday and hinted that he might be ready to roll on Sunday night, but said, "We'll see by tomorrow," meaning after the team's Saturday walkthrough. Our guess is that Harmon won't play this week but will be part of a larger group to return in Week 11 when the Steelers take on the Philadelphia Eagles, including wide receiver Roman

Wilson.
