Head coach Mike Tomlin said he expects Freiermuth (hamstring) to practice Wednesday, Dale Lolley of the Steelers' official site reports.
Tomlin didn't disclose whether Freiermuth will be returning as a limited or full practice participant, but the tight end's ability to get on the field in any capacity to begin the week is a promising sign after he sat out the Steelers' Week 5 win over the Ravens with a hamstring injury. Following the team's Week 6 bye, Freiermuth appears to be tracking toward a return to the lineup this Sunday versus the Rams.
