NFL Notes: Visits, NFLPA, Eagles, Steelers

Steelers HC Mike Tomlin said OLB James Harrison received no snaps last week because they wanted to go with the “hot hand” of OLB Anthony Chickillo.

Is [Harrison] dropping [on the depth chart] or are other guys ascending?” said Tomlin, via Conor Orr of Around The NFL. “Bud [Dupree] missed some time in Week 1, [Anthony] Chickillo was able to start. Chickillo produced two sacks. Respect those contributions. T.J. [Watt] got hurt in Week 2; wanted to leave the hot hands in there. Chickillo being that hot hand.
