Pat Freiermuth Gets In Limited Practice Session

Pittsburgh Steelers tight end Pat Freiermuth (hamstring) was a limited participant during Thursday's practice.

Josh Richardson Doesn't Return On Wednesday

Miami Heat guard Josh Richardson (foot) was forced to exit early during Wednesday's preseason matchup against the Brooklyn Nets.
