According to theย Beaver County Times, Steelers RBย Rashard Mendenhall expects to see aย significant amount ofย playing timeย against the Eagles this weekened.
Mendenhall will return to game action for the first time since he tore his ACL last season. Withoutย Mendenhall, the Steelers have had one of worst rushing units in the league. In fact, Pittsburgh has yet to have a single running back talley more thanย 43-yards in a single game this season.
Isaac Redman and Jonathan Dwyer could still see some limited action, but gettingย Mendenhall going seems like a big part of their game plan.
