On Saturday, the Pittsburgh Steelers declared that defensive tackle Montravius Adams has been activated off injured reserve to the 53-man roster. Adams’ torn meniscus has kept him out of action for the past eight weeks.
He disclosed that he underwent surgery for that injury, and the Steelers assisted him in treating another condition when he was on injured reserve. He thus feels better than he did prior to the injury.
When he returns to the field, Adams says he still needs to keep a tight eye on his knee to make sure it reacts as it should.
“I consider myself to be more of a jittery person. According to Adams, the meniscus had an impact on that for him. It helps you get out of those breaks like a shock absorber. I therefore had to pay close attention to it. I mean, I didn’t want to be outside and experience this feeling at all. Since that’s what I’m good at, I have to really pay attention to that. I perform well when we simply practice outside, and I do well the next day. However, I’m likely to act a touch strange the next day if we go inside.
Because starter Larry Ogunjobi is out due to a groin strain, the Steelers needed Adams. Adams should start against the Eagles as a result, and Keeanu Benton will probably take Ogunjobi’s place. Adams will have to do well in order to shut down star running back Saquon Barkley.
