He was running and warming up in Q3. I suspect he was held out as a precautionary measure. The injury doesn’t appear acute.

IMO, CBS missed an opportunity to play up the Toledo connection in Kareem Hunt vs. Matt Eberflus, but alas I don't recall hearing them mention Toledo once. The Colts run defense is for real, and they bottled up Kareem all game. He did get a really nice 10 year run at the end to get a first down to help run out the clock, but then hobbled off and went down on the sidelines. Might have been a cramp, but we'll have to see.
Ended up with 72 yards rushing on 20 carries, plus 3 catches for 21 yards and a TD.

It's nice to hear some good news about our ex-Rockets. Hunt really adds another dimension with his receiving skills. He made that catch with 2 guys closing on him.

Well, so much for the report about him starting. He did not. Will see if he gets any snaps.

Norton did come in in OT to fill in at LT after the starter reportedly got poked in the eye. Only got a few plays in, but looked good.

Were those Norton's first actual in-season reps as a pro?

He was active for 1 game with Minnesota and I think got a couple special teams snaps then, but these are probably the 1st offensive snaps.

In Tuesday night football, Brett Kern being Brett Kern and made 2 great holds on bad snaps on extra points.
For Buffalo, Gilliam has been on the field for more offensive snaps this game than I think all season and he was running routes for most of them. Also playing special teams. Hasn't seen the ball tho.
TEN is demolishing Buffalo, even with several players out of the COVID list and only having 1 practice in the last week or more.

IFL league team Sioux Falls has re-signed Jermaine Robinson for the 2021 season. Hopefully there will be one.

Steelers elevate Jayrone Elliott to the active roster for this week.
Storm Norton was back on the injury report this week, and is listed as doubtful for the game.
And, in the latest COVID craziness, the Bills have put 4 players on the COVID reserve list - all Tight Ends, but for some reasons, Reggie Gilliam was not one of them. So, this would appear to be a huge opportunity for Reggie.

As much as I hate seeing the Steelers win, it's a little less painful when Diontae is making the plays.
