Rush (concussion) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Broncos and is expected to play. Rush was able to clear the league's concussion protocol this week and should resume his role on special teams for the Steelers.
Coach Mike Tomlin said Tuesday that Rush is in the NFL's five-step concussion protocol, Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com reports. Rush will need to gain full medical clearance in order to suit up Sunday on the road against Denver. Tomlin said there is a "level of anticipation" that Rush will be cleared for Week 2, at least. He played exclusively on special teams during Pittsburgh's win over the Falcons in Week 1.
