Polamalu nearing return
Pittsburgh Steelers safety Troy Polamalu is expected to practice for the first time this week and could play against the Detroit Lions.
The safety started running last week and had been entertained by the idea of returning for the team’s big game against the San Diego Chargers.
However, the Steelers held him out, wanting to make sure he is completely healthy before he steps back out on the field.
They might want to think about doing the same thing this week given their matchup against the lowly Detroit Lions.
