Jim Wexell's blog-style mid-week report from the Steelers' practice facility on the South Side.
PITTSBURGH -- Apologies for no formal report this morning. Maybe it's all of the soccer excitement going on with my daughter's team, but I had to leave the South Side with a bit of illness Wednesday afternoon. Maybe it's the same illness that forced Martavis Bryant from practice Wednesday.
Bryant missed, as did Terence Garvin (knee), Markus Wheaton (ankle) and Matt Spaeth (knee) with injuries. James Harrison, Will Gay and Heath Miller were given veteran days off.
