Martavis Bryant Injury: Updates on Steelers WR's Knee and Return

Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Martavis Bryant was suspended for the first four games of the 2015 season, and the Steelers announced they activated him Oct. 13.

Fox Sports' Ross Jones reported that Bryant tweaked his knee during practice Oct. 5. However, Bryant was not listed on the Steelers' injury report ahead of Week 6, so expect him to make his regular-season debut Sunday against the Arizona Cardinals.

Bryant has emerged as a reliable downfield target for the Steelers. He made 26 receptions for 549 yards and eight touchdowns last season, averaging 21.1 yards per catch.

The team came into 2015 expecting him to be a more well-rounded option.

"People are going to judge, regardless what you do," he told reporters in the preseason, per Gerry Dulac of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette. “You can't go by that. If they feel like your hands are bad and you feel your hands are bad, go put the work in and make them better."

This was the second time Bryant has dealt with an injury this year. He had a minor surgery in August to remove an infection in his elbow, causing him to miss a little bit of time in camp.

The Steelers offense has been serviceable, albeit less explosive, in the interim with Michael Vick operating under center as Ben Roethlisberger recovers from a knee injury.

Darrius Heyward-Bey has downfield pop, while Markus Wheaton is good at the in-between routes, but Bryant gives the offense a different dynamic.
