One of the most fearsome pass rushers on the Pittsburgh Steelers defense — OLB Alex Highsmith — is gearing up for a Week 13 return against the Buffalo Bills after missing two games with a pectoral injury.
After being logged as a full participant in back-to-back practices, Highsmith isn't carrying an injury designation heading into Week 13 — giving Pittsburgh's defense a much-needed boost while the Bills are without their two starting offensive tackles.

Along with Highsmith, several Steelers dealing with injuries — Aaron Rodgers (left wrist), DK Metcalf (ankle), Joey Porter Jr. (hip), and Ben Skowronek (shoulder) — will also play against the Bills in a pivotal Week 13 matchup.
