Steelers Hoping New S Kyle Dugger Can Play ‘In Some Capacity’ Sunday

The Pittsburgh Steelers made their trade for S Kyle Dugger official this morning, and Dugger has a chance to suit up against the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday. During his press conference on Thursday, defensive coordinator Teryl Austin said the team is preparing Dugger to play.

“Just had him for the walkthrough, so we’ll determine that as we get a little closer. We’re gonna try to do the best we can to get him ready to be available for us in some capacity,” Austin said via Chris Adamski of TribLive on Twitter.
