Will Derrick Harmon make his Steelers debut against the Patriots?

Although Steelers HC Mike Tomlin described Derrick Harmon as “questionable at best”, the rookie sounded a more optimistic tone. Speaking to reporters on Wednesday, he essentially declared himself ready to go. The first-round defensive lineman suffered a knee injury in the preseason, but returned to practice this week.

Of course, Harmon is also a starter, lest we forget. DL coach Karl Dunbar explicated that during OTAs, and his usage during training camp made it abundantly clear. During the preseason, he showed a big jump from Week 1 to Week 2.
