A post on Sulia from Mark Kaboly questioning the James Harrison injury:

Something just doesn't add up with #Steelers LB James Harrison's injury
So let me get this straight. James Harrison was on the field and playing four months after having a pair of spine surgeries ... James Harrison started a game 35 days after breaking an orbital bone in his face last year ... but a 'cleanup' of a sore knee has kept the guy who missed only one meaningless game in his career up until last year off the field for 30 days and counting? It makes about as much sense as the Steelers waiting three months to have this 'cleanup' surgery done in the first place. A knee 'cleanup' shouldn't keep a proven football warrior like Harrison off the field for a month and counting. It just shouldn't. Harrison's mentality and makeup says he should've been on the field weeks ago. But with each passing day, it's becoming more viable of an argument that Harrison's 'cleanup' was, in fact, more than that. a day ago
It is a valid question. Harrison has battled through worse injuries in his career. Why has this one become such a giant killer? There has to be more to this than just a simple clean-up operation. I suppose it could just be that he's healing slower as he gets older, but whether it's that or a much worse injury/procedure than what has been divulged, neither is good news for Steelers Nation.
I really hope he can get back on the field by no later than the week after our bye week. Otherwise, it may be the beginning of the end for Harrison as a Steeler.

I'm not so sure it's about the injury being held.
IMO, I believe that the team is looking down the road. If he comes back now and aggravates or re-injures the knee, then we're looking at a longer recovery time during a schedule that has an early BYE week. Now I don't see Harrison playing until after the BYE week, when he'll be well rested, recovered, and without question ready to finish the season.
It could also be the coaches playing to see what they have in the first stringers in waiting.
