The Pittsburgh Steelers have activated defensive and Stephon Tuitt from the Reserve/COVID-19 List.
Tuitt was placed on the list Friday, November 27 and missed the Steelers Week 12 victory over the Baltimore Ravens.
With the loss of Bud Dupree along the defensive front, the return of Tuitt will help cover the loss even though they do not play the same position. On the season, Tuitt is third on the Steelers with 7.0 sacks, only one behind Dupree in one less game since he was unable to play last week.
