Steelers place Ola Adeniyi on IR.

That sucks. He is going to be good.

 

At least he’s still going to be with the team.

 

I thought it was a minimum of 8 weeks for IR designated to return and a minimum of 6 weeks for starting on the PUP.

 

I believe he can report back in six weeks, and play in eight.

 

Wow I guess they felt so down on Adams that they risked getting him through waivers knowing OA was injured. Yet there is no mention of signing him to the 53.....strange.

 

Maybe it means they are working on a deal with someone recently cut, or maybe even a trade. Here's to hoping.

 

It is possible but then another move will have to be made when OA returns to make room...

 

Yeah, but that would be 10 weeks away. A lot can happen between now and then.

 

I thought it was 6-8 but point taken

 

Yeah I think you’re right

 

Hamstring injuries can be severe and linger, this could be ideal thing for him

 

Thankfully they don't have to designate anyone and can take a wait and see approach.

 

Everyone rooting for this kid. Lot of potential for a position heavily needed.

 

Damn, didn't see when he went down. Looks to be a keeper though.

Remember Kendrell Bell? They rushed him back too quick IMHO. Wasn't the same after that.
