Martavis Bryant who hadn't been allowed to practice with his teammates has finally been given permission by the NFL. Bryant was reinstated in April on a conditional basis. A clear reason as to why Bryant was restricted when the Steelers arrived at camp was never given by the NFL or the Steelers. It's safe to say that he hadn't met one or more of the previsions that the NFL set out for him. Several sources suggested that he hadn't set up a sufficient therapy program.
A short time ago the Steelers released the following statement from General Manager Kevin Colbert:
Martavis Bryant has been informed by the NFL that he is now permitted to participate in all preseason activities, including practices and games. He will continue to be evaluated as to his readiness to participate in regular-season activities under the terms of his conditional reinstatement.
Bryant will have to stay out of trouble and continue to comply with the league office until the preseason is over. At that time if he has done all the NFL has asked he would be reinstated completely.
