Steelers TE Pat Freiermuth continues to practice fully
Pat Freiermuth’s progression through NFL concussion protocol continues to, by all indications, be going smoothly. The tight end on Thursday was listed as a full participant at Pittsburgh Steelers practice for the second consecutive day.
Freiermuth absorbed a hit late in last week’s loss at the Cincinnati Bengals, but he has not missed any practice time per the league-mandated injury report.
Veteran cornerback Joe Haden again did not practice Thursday, making it increasingly likely he could miss a third consecutive game when the Steelers host the Baltimore Ravens on Sunday. Haden has been nursing a foot injury.
The Steelers potentially could be down two cornerbacks against the Ravens. Arthur Maulet was a new addition to the injury report Thursday because of a quadriceps injury.
Reserve tackle Zach Banner (illness) missed a second consecutive practice, and reserve defensive lineman Isaiah Buggs was an addition to the injury report Thursday because of an ankle injury. Buggs was listed as limited Thursday.
Receiver Chase Claypool (toe) and long snapper Christian Kuntz were full participants.
