Stephon Tuitt News
The Pittsburgh Steelers activated defensive end Stephon Tuitt from the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Saturday. Tuitt has 31 tackles and seven sacks in 10 games and has also forced two fumbles and has two passes defensed. His return is a huge boost for a defense that just lost linebacker Bud Dupree (knee) to a season-ending torn ACL. Defensive lineman Chris Wormley was also activated from the Injured Reserve, returning the team's defensive line to full health. Tuitt went on the COVID-19 list on Nov. 27 and missed the Week 12 win over the Ravens on Wednesday. The 27-year-old has been a starting defensive lineman in IDP leagues in 2020 and ranks 10th at the position through 10 games in overall fantasy points. Pittsburgh's defensive unit will be a top-three play in Week 13 against Washington on Monday.
Pittsburgh Steelers defensive end Stephon Tuitt (COVID-19 list) was activated off of the COVID-19/reserve list Saturday, paving the way for a potential return to action in Week 13 for Monday's game versus Washington. Having landed on the list prior to last week's game versus Baltimore, Tuitt has now cleared protocols and is eligible to return to practice. Tuitt has started all 10 games that he has appeared in this season, having compiled a career-high seven sacks to this point in 2020. His addition to the Steelers Defense solidifies the group as one of the top defensive units in fantasy, one that should undoubtedly be rostered in a favorable matchup against Washington this week.
The Pittsburgh Steelers placed defensive end Stephon Tuitt, defensive tackle Isaiah Buggs and offensive lineman Jerald Hawkins on the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Friday. Tuitt could be a big loss for the elite Steelers Defense with their game being moved to Tuesday night in Week 12 due to COVID-19 issues in the Ravens organization. The 27-year-old pass-rusher ranks ninth in fantasy points among defensive linemen in IDP leagues with 23 tackles, seven sacks and two forced fumbles in 10 games for Pittsburgh. It's unclear if Tuitt actually tested positive for the virus, but his status will be in question for Tuesday regardless. The Steelers defense has become riskier with the threat of the game being postponed, but if the game is played, they should be considered a top-10 fantasy unit with Ravens quarterback Lamar Jackson out due to COVID-19.
