The Pittsburgh Steelers are in the middle of one of their worst seasons in a really long time and currently sit at 2-6 overall. The good news is they might be getting their star linebacker, T.J. Watt, back in the lineup sometime in the near future. He’s been out dealing with a torn pectoral muscle and it sounds like he’s “optimistic” about his return this Sunday against the New Orleans Saints. That being said, Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin recently said he’s optimistic about his inclusion in this week’s game, but we’ll have to see as we approach closer to gametime on Sunday.

The Steelers have officially activated safety Damontae Kazee from the Reserve/Injured List, the franchise announced on Thursday. Kazee, who has not played this season, had been back in practice since Oct. 20. He was reaching the end of his 21-day window, and had there been no activation from the Steelers, Kazee would not have returned this season.

A follow-up move was made to make room on the active 53-man roster, with kicker Chris Boswell being placed on the Reserve/Injured List. Boswell did not make an appearance during the Week 8 loss against the Philadelphia Eagles. Now, he is going to miss some more time with a right groin injury. He did not practice on Thursday for the second day. He was also listed with an illness on Thursday’s practice report.
