The Steelers could be getting another weapon back on offense following the bye, and it’s not quarterback Ben Roethlisberger (though that would be great).
The player that could be back in tight end Ladarius Green, who singed a big free agent deal this offseason to join the team and take over as lead tight end for the retiring Heath Miller, but so far due to injury hasn’t played a down.
The team released a tweet today that Green is going to finally take the practice field.
TE Ladarius Green is expected to practice today.

Ladarius Green remains on #Steelers Reserve/PUP List & can practice up to a max. of 21 days before team must either activate/return to IR. https://t.co/vcdrYWKtrr

Green went on the PUP list in late August with ankle issues, and there’s also been stories about headaches as a reason he was unable to practice for play for that matter.
“Everything is getting better,” Green said on Steelers.com. “Everything is progressing.”

To this point, Green has been as bad a signing as Gilbert is and the Steelers have wasted 10 million dollars in cap space.
