John Malecki, a former Pitt and Franklin Regional offensive lineman who has been cut by five NFL teams, was activated off the Steelers practice squad Saturday. Corbin Bryant, a defensive end picked up earlier in the week, was waived.
Coach Mike Tomlin said he might dress eight offensive linemen in Cincinnati rather than the usual seven. Right tackle Marcus Gilbert is out with an ankle injury and will be replaced by rookie Mike Adams, while center Maurkice Pouncey (right knee) isnt certain to play.
