Steelers running back [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] is slowly getting out of coach Mike Tomlin's doghouse.

Mendenhall will be active for Sunday's game against the Bengals, but his
participation will depend on the flow of the game, according to [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.]. He has averaged 50.8 yards rushing in six games against Cincinnati.


This will be the first time that Mendenhall will suit up since Nov.
25 in Cleveland, where he fumbled twice on four carries. Mendenhall, the
team's leading rusher for the previous three seasons, was inactive for
the next two games and was suspended last Sunday when he failed to show
up for the Dec. 9 game at Heinz Field.


Tomlin described Mendenhall as being frustrated. "I wouldn't use that word," Mendenhall told the [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] about his reasons for not attending the game. "There's a lot of thought that goes into everything that I do."


There is a chance that Mendenhall, an unrestricted free agent at the
end of the season, will remain with the Steelers. ESPN's Adam Schefter
reported last Sunday that Mendenhall and the Steelers are communicating
and committing to meaningful contractual conversation

Meh...I think a change is good right now. Mendy can make a difference in the passing game IMO.

So basically mendenhall is stating that he put much thought I to his decision not to show up to the stadium...buy bye...I say you in him into the ground should you go to the playoffs, as he won't be back and should be much fresher than the other backs...just something to think about.
