Returns from IR The Steelers designated Leal (knee) to return from injured reserve Wednesday, Teresa Varley of the team's official site reports. Impact Leal was placed on IR with a knee injury ahead of Pittsburgh's Week 6 win over Tampa Bay. Now, the rookie defensive lineman will have a 21-day window to practice and be restored to the active roster, or else he'll revert to season-ending injured reserve. Leal recorded nine tackles and three passes defended in a rotational role over the first five games of the season, and his earliest opportunity to play will come Sunday against the Bengals.
