Steelers activate Jalen Ramsey off PUP list, Max Iheanachor returns to practice

The Steelers are getting a couple of players back on the practice field this week.

The Pittsburgh Steelers have made two key roster moves as they prepare for their preseason finale against the Buffalo Bills. Defensive back Jalen Ramsey, who had been sidelined by a knee injury sustained during the team's offseason program, has been activated from the physically unable to perform (PUP) list. Ramsey, who started all 17 games last season, contributed significantly with 88 total tackles, eight passes defensed, an interception, and 3.0 sacks.

Additionally, first-round rookie offensive lineman Max Iheanachor, who suffered a neck/shoulder injury earlier in training camp, has returned to practice. Iheanachor's presence will be a welcome addition to the Steelers' offensive line as they look to bolster their defensive capabilities. The team's preseason campaign concludes with a crucial game against their AFC divisional rivals on Thursday night.
