Interesting in light of Parker's stated goal of
being an every-down back. ... It's also worth noting the Steelers and Parker weren't exactly forthcoming about why he didn't practice Tuesday afternoon. Parker told the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review, "Sometimes you need to take a break," but he added that he won't practice again today. Asked if he had hurt his knee, he referred reporters to HC Mike Tomlin, who said Parker didn't practice Tuesday afternoon because he needed a break. Tomlin said Parker doesn't have an issue with his knee. ... Hmmmm. Even if the knee isn't an ongoing issue, Tomlin's handling of the information might be. Stay tuned.
