The Steelers practiced on Wednesday in preparation for the Week 13 Sunday game with the New England Patriots. DE Brett Keisel (knee), RB Willie Parker (knee) and T Marvel Smith (back) were the only players not to practice. Keisel and Smith have already been ruled out for this week. WR Santonio Holmes (concussion), CB Bryant McFadden (forearm) and CB Deshea Townsend (hamstring) all appear to have practiced fully although head coach Mike Tomlin deemed Townsend doubtful on Tuesday to play this week.
