Pittsburgh Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin said Tuesday, Aug. 27, that RB Isaac Redman (pinched nerve) will miss a third straight preseason game Thursday, Aug. 29. Redman feels that being sat out is a sign the head coach plans to use him in Week 1. ‘If they’re throwing you out there in a preseason game and making you play and compete when you’re injured, that’s not a good sign,’ Redman said. ‘To sit you and give you that rest you need to come in for Week 1, it tells you a lot about what they think of you.’
