Steelers' Cole Holcomb: Practices in full

Holcomb (illness) was a full participant in practice Wednesday, Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com reports.

Holcomb has not played since Week 8 due to a lingering illness, but he appears back to full health ahead of Sunday's road matchup against the Bears. Barring any setbacks, expect the veteran linebacker to resume handling a key role on defense for Pittsburgh in Week 12.
