Adams (knee) was activated off injured reserve Saturday and does not have an injury designation for Sunday's game against Philadelphia, Steelers Senior Director of Communications Burt Lauten reports. Per Lauten, Adams is expected to play Sunday. The veteran defensive tackle missed each of the Steelers' past six contests while dealing with a knee issue. Adams will likely take on a rotational role upon his return.

Adams (knee) was designated to return from injured reserve Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports. Adams sustained a knee injury in the Steelers' Week 7 win over the Jets, and the issue has sidelined him for the team's last four games. However, he returned to practice in full Wednesday, indicating that he could play as soon as Sunday's divisional matchup against the Bengals. The 29-year-old must still be activated to Pittsburgh's active roster in order to suit up in Week 13.
