Rashard Mendenhall no timetable for game action

Steelers GM Kevin Colbert admits that the team still isn’t sure when RB Rashard Mendenhall (knee) will be ready for game action.  "The trainers felt that he had progressed as far as he could in doing what they were doing," Colbert said.  "And the kid felt confident that he was ready to take the next step. Now, the next step is being able to practice, and where that leads to nobody knows at this point."  We’re in wait-and-see mode with the Pittsburgh backfield right now.  Redman is still our top-ranked Steelers RB, but he’s gone from a rock-solid RB2 to a risky RB3.  We still view Mendenhall as just a late-round flier.
