PITTSBURGH — Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Russell Wilson was at practice on Wednesday as the team began its work for its Week 2 date against the Denver Broncos, and though head coach Mike Tomlin said on Tuesday that Wilson was not expected to be a full participant, he was wearing pads while warming up before team periods.

Elsewhere, cornerback Darius Rush (concussion protocol) was not in pads, but was able to work as receiver in a pass skeleton drills, a positive sign toward his return.

On the offensive line, Broderick Jones flipped to left tackle with Dan Moore Jr. hampered by a right ankle injury, and first-round pick Troy Fautanu got some work with the starters at right tackle.
