Looks like we will see him play Thursday.......


Gerry Dulac of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette confirms that Emmanuel Sanders (foot) will make his 2011 preseason debut Thursday night.

It's one of the final steps in Sanders' recovery from three foot surgeries. Though he's likely to enter the year no higher than No. 4 on the Steelers' receiver chart, Sanders has enough talent to move up quickly, pending health.

I'm sure the Steelers know what they're doing but didn't he already prolong the injury by trying to practice too soon? I'm not sure that trying to run timing routes with Batch and Dixon throwing to him is worth him taking the risk.

Means he's been on schedule. This was the plan from early on.

If he's healthy and ready to go, let him loose. Know he's itching to play.

Plus, getting some reps before the regular season will help me out.

Very anxious to see how he looks.

If Sanders hits his stride this season, barring injuries, the sky is the limit on offense.

Just hope he's 100%

another injury during the season could actually hurt us, even with all the depth we have
