Technically speaking, Pittsburgh Steelers rookie outside linebacker Olasunkanmi Adeniyi, who was placed on injured reserve shortly after the final roster cuts were made, is currently eligible to return to practice for the first time since the regular season began. The Toledo product, however, told the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review that he has not been informed of any plans to get him on the practice field as of yet.
That should not be incredibly surprising. For one thing, they are currently on a bye week and will not even be practicing later this week. It actually would not make a great deal of sense to start his clock now, even though, as he told Chris Adamski, he is “ready to go today, hands down”.
