In his weekly press conference, Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin noted that cornerback Mike Hilton would be returning to practice on Wednesday.
Hilton has been dealing with a shoulder injury that kept him out of action since Week 6.
The fourth-year corner is an integral part of Pittsburgh’s defense and has been vital to the pash rush in 2020.
Tomlin said “there’s really big optimism” in the potential return of both Hilton and defensive tackle Chris Wormley (knee) to the lineup. Henry Mondeaux has been filling in for Wormley since Week 8.
