The Pittsburgh Steelers seem to be getting back to full strength at the right time.
Pittsburgh has won back-to-back games and find themselves in second place in the AFC North.
One player they must be thrilled to get back soon is defensive tackle Cameron Heyward.
He is one of the best defensive tackles in the NFL and will add to a stout Steelers defensive line.
According to Adam Schefter, Heyward returned to practice today and the team now has a 21-day window to activate him.

The Steelers have been an interesting team all season.
One week they get blown out by the Houston Texans, the next week they are taking down the Baltimore Ravens.
No one seems to know how good they are.
Despite being 4-2, they have a -24 point differential.
We know their defense is good and has been the main reason for their four wins.
But, to get where they want to go they need more out of their offense.
Kenny Pickett has not had a good statistical season thus far.
He has thrown for 1,257 yards with five touchdowns and four interceptions in six games.
Also, he is only completing 60.9% of his passes.
It is hard to be successful over a full season with an offense as bad as the Steelers’.
They are second to last in yards per game and average only 17.2 points per game.
So much pressure is put on their defense to be perfect with a team that struggles to move the ball like them.
Adding Heyward back into the fold will be a boost, but he will not help their consistent offensive woes.
