That'd be good news if he could play against Pittsburgh.
God knows we'll need the help against that offense.

This is very surprising news. I've been waiting for this moment for a long time. Glad he is finally healthy

Outstanding news.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.

According to the website, either way, he plays 15-20 snaps, easing him into the 100% football shape before he goes full tilt.

Burfict is not ready. Mike Brown is just doing this to cut payroll faster. He has to activate Burfict before he can cut someone.

Limited snaps would be my guess. Still good to have him out there on obvious running situations. Could be key on a 3rd down or 4th down stop.

A surprise for sure. If true I imagine Little getting cut. In my mind, he's the most expendable at the moment.
Some say you can place your ear next to his, and hear the ocean ....

This is great news!!! Even if his time is limited, I'm sure even being in there for a few plays can help. I can't wait to see if he does in fact play.

Perfect. Should be a huge morale boost just to have him in uniform. Getting 15-20 snaps is just icing.

Yep, this will help a lot with his conditioning. Everyone says it doesn't look like he has missed anytime. That awareness is still there. Also, if this is a man that just comes off injury and goes and starts (or plays some time) I think that speaks volumes about our LBs.

I'll just have to trust the coaches. Hopefully no set backs and he is relatively 100%.

Lewis says, his first and foremost concern is Burfict's career, not the season.
(Can't wait to see how this plays out in here. I guess if there are any 'spitting on the bus' Cincinnati fans, that Dunlap described and confirmed that reside in Pittsburgh, they will see this a little different.)
