  1D ago • By RotoWire

  Newsome (shoulder) does not carry an injury designation ahead of Thursday's game versus the Steelers, Daniel Oyefusi of ESPN.com reports.

It is possible that he could still be working on a reduced snap count, though, potentially opening up more opportunities for 2023 fifth-rounder Cameron Mitchell.

Newsome is coming off the best season of his young career in 2023, appearing in 14 games and recording 49 total tackles, including four tackles for loss, while also defending 14 passes, with two interceptions.
