is just happy to be back on the field.The veteran safety will play Sunday at home against Cleveland after missing the previous four games with a groin injury."It's good to get back into the flow of things and get back into a normal work week Youth Denzel Ward Jersey ," Burnett said Friday. "As a competitor, you want to be out there, you don't want to miss anything, but I understand that comes with the game. This is a physical game, and you demand a lot from your body, but once it happened, being upset isn't going to help you heal faster."Burnett, in his ninth season, played in the Steelers' first two games against Cleveland and Kansas City, but he has been out since Sept. 16 with his injury. This week was the first time Burnett fully practiced three straight days without any setback."Everything felt good," Burnett said. "Everything went well this week. I definitely feel prepared and ready. I'm just trying to take positive steps forward."Burnett tried to practice before the Sept. 30 home game against Baltimore and the following week against Atlanta, but wasn't able to return."It wasn't quite ready and my body made sure it let me know that," Burnett said. "We went back to rehabbing and went from there. I just followed protocol, and I did what the trainers asked me to do to try and get back as quick as possible."The 29-year-old Burnett spent his first eight seasons in Green Bay before signing a three-year, $14.5-million contract with the Steelers in the offseason. He started 102 games for the Packers and won a Super Bowl ring in 2011, when Green Bay beat Pittsburgh.The Steelers signed Burnett in hopes he could provide leadership to a young secondary group, but the veteran has spent most of his time in Pittsburgh watching from the sideline thanks to a steady stream of injuries. He missed most of training camp with a hamstring injury before his latest groin issue."I think it's your job as a professional to stay locked in," Burnett said. "You can't physically go out there, so you have to stay in tune mentally with the game plan."Defensive coordinator Keith Butler is excited to have Burnett back in the fold."We miss him and I'm glad he's back," Butler said. "I think Morgan gives us a little bit more opportunity to do some things that we haven't done. I think he'll help us."Rookie safety Terrell Edmunds has started the last four games in place of Burnett. The Steelers' first-round pick was supposed to spend his first season learning behind Burnett http://www.authenticsclevelandbrowns.com/c...schobert-jersey , but he has been thrown into the mix with favorable reviews.Still, Edmunds is glad to see Burnett healthy again."It's definitely nice to have him back, it's nice to have everybody back," Edmunds said. "It's just a good thing to have another leader in the secondary."Burnett just wants to make an impression during his first season in Pittsburgh and put his injury struggles in the past."It's tough, but that just comes with the business," Burnett said. "The only thing you can do is take it one day at a time and do all you can do to get back on the field."I just want to be accountable as a teammate and do my job to the best of my ability."NOTES: Starting right tackle Marcus Gilbert will miss Sunday's game with a knee injury. Second-year lineman Matt Feiler will fill in and make his second start of the season at right tackle. Feiler also started the Steelers' first win of the season Sept. 24 at Tampa Bay.Scouting the Browns’ Week 1 opponent: Pittsburgh Steelers - Our Q&A with Behind the Steel Curtain On Sunday, the Cleveland Browns’ 2018 regular season begins when they battle the Pittsburgh Steelers. To help preview a few topics from the Steelers’ perspective, we reached out to Jeff Hartman from Behind the Steel Curtain and exchanged five questions with him. Enjoy!Le'Veon Bell holding out gives the Browns a big leg up.Photo by Kevin C. Cox/Getty ImagesChris: “Week 1 is here, and Le’Veon Bell is continuing his holdout to the point where it doesn’t look like he will play Sunday. Were Steelers fans expecting this? Who takes his spot and what do they offer?”Jeff: “I don’t think any Steelers fans were expecting this. Everyone thought he would follow the same protocol as last year, and that was by simply showing up prior to Week 1 and playing out the regular season. At this point, who knows when he will return. Maybe he just sits out Week 1 to make a point, or maybe he waits until Week 11, the last possible time to report, and then plays out the final few games of the regular season. Who knows, but you will see a heavy dose of James Conner and Stevan Ridley in his place. Not the same talent as Bell, but hard-nosed runners who played extremely well in the preseason.”With Todd Haley gone from Pittsburgh, Big Ben gets more control.Photo by Jared Wickerham/Getty ImagesChris: “Todd Haley was the Steelers’ offensive coordinator for awhile, and now he’s in Cleveland. Just based on the preseason, how do you expect the Steelers’ offensive attack to change, if at all?”Jeff: “Ben Roethlisberger will have more control of it Youth Baker Mayfield Jersey , and the Steelers will utilize more uptempo offense to slow down the Browns’ pass rush. Myles Garrett is a legitimate concern, and look for Roethlisberger and company to try and run the football, and utilize the no-huddle as much as possible on the road to help negate the impact he can have on the game. Fichtner is more open to change than Haley is/was, and this could work to the Steelers’ advantage.”Alejandro Villanueva is the soft spot of Pittsburgh’s offensive line at left tackle.Photo by Patrick McDermott/Getty ImagesChris: “What would you consider the biggest vulnerability on Pittsburgh’s offensive line?”Jeff: “Alejandro Villanueva. The team’s starting left tackle is by far the weakest link, but it doesn’t mean he is terrible. He will have his hands full with Garrett and company, and look for Pittsburgh to always be aware of who is lining up across from Villanueva. Other than Villanueva, the Steelers’ offensive front struggled in run blocking last year, while excelling in pass protection.”Without Ryan Shazier in the middle, the Steelers’ defense will still have issues covering running backs and tight ends.Photo by Mitchell Leff/Getty ImagesChris: “Which position group on defense is the one Cleveland’s offense can best take advantage of?”Jeff: “If you want to beat the Steelers’ defense you have to attack the middle of the field. The Steelers’ have a very good defensive front, and a much-improved secondary. However, without Ryan Shazier there is a gaping hole left in the middle of the field. TEs and RBs out of the backfield have killed this defense, and it doesn’t look as if that will change heading into Week 1.”Chris: “Hard Knocks has won the Browns a lot of national support this year. How is the Pittsburgh fanbase approaching this week’s game? ‘Same old Browns?’ Do you view Cleveland as the basement of the division still?”Jeff: “The real Steelers fans who pay attention know this won’t be a cake walk. While some still say the same-old sayings about the Browns, honest fans knew this day would come. The day when the Browns’ draft picks and free agent pick ups would actually legitimize the team. For the most part, Steelers fans, especially without Le’Veon Bell, are taking this game very serious. Division game, on the road against a team with nothing to lose. That is a recipe for disaster, and we will see how it plays out on Sunday.”Thanks again to Jeff for taking the time to answer my questions. nflshopoutlet.com
