TE Matt Spaeth could make a return to practice this week according to head coach Mike Tomlin. During his weekly press conference, Mike Tomlin told the media that Matt Spaeth will be evaluated on the field today, and that evaluation will determine whether or not he’ll be able to participate in practice this week.

Spaeth started the season on IR/with the designation to return due to the lisfranc injury he suffered during training camp. If he did return this week, it would be roughly 14 and a half weeks after his lisfranc surgery. The team has 21 days after his return to make a decision on activating him.
