As of Tuesday, Pittsburgh Steelers rookie cornerback Cameron Sutton was officially eligible to start practicing with the team as he looks to return from a hamstring injury. While Sutton was eligible to start practicing again this week, the team has apparently decided to let him keep working on the side for now.
“If I could go today, I would,” Sutton said Wednesday, according to Joe Rutter of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review.
Assuming that Sutton is now healthy enough to resume practicing, the Steelers probably decided not to start the 21-day window now on their first of two third round draft picks this year and that makes sense being as they don’t really need him right now due to their secondary currently being fully healthy.
