Pittsburgh Steelers Activate Defensive Tackle Derrick Harmon for Sunday Night Game Against Bengals
On Saturday, November 14, the Pittsburgh Steelers of Pennsylvania announced that they have activated defensive tackle Derrick Harmon from the injured reserve list to the 53-man roster and waived cornerback Terrell Smith to make room. Harmon had missed the previous four games with a foot injury; he opened his 21-day practice window on Wednesday, participated in practice on a limited basis on Wednesday and Thursday, and returned to full practice on Friday, making him ready to play. Harmon is expected to play in the Steelers' road game against the Cincinnati Bengals at Paycor Stadium in Cincinnati on Sunday night at 8:20 p.m. Both teams are currently 6-2 and tied for first place in the AFC North, and the outcome of this game will determine who leads the division. The Steelers beat the Bengals 30-27 in their first meeting on September 27. The Steelers come into this key divisional game after their bye week, although tight end Pat Freiermuth was added to the injury report on Saturday with an illness and is questionable; he has 25 receptions for 235 yards and 4 touchdowns in 8 games this season. Harmon is an important member of the Steelers' defensive front, and his return is expected to strengthen the team's defensive depth against a divisional opponent.
