The Facts: Bryant has yet to be reinstated by NFL. Steelers GM Kevin Colbert released the following statement on Martavis Bryant on Thursday afternoon: "Upon his conditional reinstatement in April, Martavis Bryant was made aware it was only the beginning of a process toward a return to being a full contributing member of the Pittsburgh Steelers. We have been informed by the NFL that Martavis is still in the process of being fully reinstated. Until that time, Martavis will be permitted to take part in off-the-field team activities at training camp, but he will not be permitted to practice or play in any games."
Diehards Line:Bryant was reinstated by the NFL on a conditional basis in May with the understanding he could participate in team meetings and off-season workouts effective immediately. He was also expected to be allowed to participate in training camp practices and preseason games provided that he demonstrated before camp that he has made the necessary arrangements to continue drug treatment in Pittsburgh. Sounds like he hasn't done that yet. ... We'll follow up as needed.
