Steelers have ‘real shot’ to get key offensive lineman back for Week 5

The Pittsburgh Steelers‘ offensive line has been decimated by injuries since Week 1, but they could get a key contributor back just in time to take on the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday night.

Right guard Isaac Seumalo, who’s missed the first four games of the season with a pectoral strain, is getting closer to returning to the lineup.

Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin had this to say in Tuesday’s press conference about the veteran lineman:

I’m excited about the potential of having Isaac back in the offensive line, especially given some of the attrition that’s happened there in recent weeks. He was close last week. I think it’s reasonable to assume that he’s got a real shot to make it this time around.

Three O-line starters are done for the season: Center Nate Herbig (torn rotator cuff), tackle Troy Fautanu (knee) and left guard James Daniels (knee).
