Iosivas (thumb) was cleared to return to practice Thursday.

Iosivas, who landed on IR on Sept. 26, is bouncing back from surgery to repair a torn ligament in his thumb, and the wideout's looming return to Thursday's practice has him trending the right direction ahead of Sunday's game against the Steelers. Once he's back in action, Iosivas will slot back in behind top WRs Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins, a role that doesn't typically yield steady volume.
