PITTSBURGH (AP) — Pittsburgh Steelers linebacker LaMarr Woodley is ready to return for Sunday’s game against the Miami Dolphins. Woodley has missed the last three games with a left calf injury.

Woodley practiced Friday and says he’ll be at his usual spot on the left side of Pittsburgh’s 3-4 defense. Jason Worilds, who played very well while filling in for Woodley, will move back to the right side.

The Steelers will play without defensive end Brett Keisel, out with a left foot injury. Left tackle Kelvin Beachum will also sit out with a knee injury.

Mike Adams will take over for Beachum against the Dolphins (6-6). Cody Wallace will replace Fernando Velasco at center after Velasco tore his Achilles tendon in last week’s loss to Baltimore.
