Returns to practice
Kazee (ankle) practiced in full Sunday, Chris Adamski of TribLive.com reports.
Kazee was sporting a walking boot at the end of July after suffering a sprained ankle in practice. Now fully recovered, the team's starter at strong safety should be able to turn his focus to being ready for the season opener against the 49ers.

In walking boot
Kazee (ankle) said Sunday that the boot on his left foot is a precautionary measure to make sure he's healthy for Week 1, Brian Batko of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.
Kazee also noted that the injury itself is a "slightly sprained" left ankle that he twisted a bit during Saturday's practice. Once back to full health, he'll compete with Keanu Neal for the starting strong safety role beside free safety Minkah Fitzpatrick.
Back to Steelers on two-year deal
The Steelers re-signed Kazee to a two-year contract Tuesday, ESPN's Brooke Pryor reports.
Kazee inked a one-year deal with the Steelers last offseason but missed the first eight games of the year on injured reserve with an arm issue. If Pittsburgh can't re-sign Terrell Edmunds in free agency, Kazee makes sense as a replacement next to Minkah Fitzpatrick. Kazee has made 53 career starts across six seasons with three different teams.
