Steelers' Pat Freiermuth: Practices fully after bye

Freiermuth (hamstring) was a full practice participant Wednesday, Teresa Varley of the Steelers' official site reports.

Freiermuth missed the Steelers' Week 5 win over the Ravens with a hamstring injury, but the team's Week 6 bye gave the tight end the time he needed to get back to 100 percent in advance of this Sunday's game against the Rams. In four games this season, Freiermuth has been limited to eight catches on 13 targets for 53 yards and two touchdowns. Now that he's set to re-enter the lineup Week 7, Freiermuth has a chance to pick up the pace in a Pittsburgh passing offense that could also welcome back receiver Diontae Johnson (hamstring), who logged a full practice Wednesday after being designated for return from injured reserve two days earlier.
