Defensive tackle Derrick Harmon is set to return to the Steelers’ lineup for Sunday night’s game against the Cincinnati Bengals. The Steelers announced Saturday that they have activated Harmon from injured reserve. He returned to practice this week after being sidelined for the past four games due to a foot injury.
During the season’s opening four contests, Harmon recorded 12 tackles, 1.5 sacks and forced a fumble. The 2025 first‑round pick amassed 27 tackles, three sacks and a fumble recovery in his rookie season.
The roster move coincides with the release of defensive back Terrell Smith. Smith, who was signed off the Washington Commanders’ practice squad in October, appeared once for Pittsburgh, making a single tackle.
