Willie Parker on his turf toe: "I'm starting to plant, cut and do all that stuff because it's starting to heal up,'' Parker said following Thursday's practice. "It's still swollen, but it's getting a lot better. This week is the best that it's been.''

Parker OK with No. 2, not all the way back from toe

Willie Parker won't argue with Tomlin's decision to give Rashard Mendenhall the brunt of the carries Sunday.

"He's the coach, he has to make a decision and live with it. He thinks that's the best for our offense right now and pretty much I have to prove him wrong. I'm cool with it."

Parker carried only seven times last Sunday after missing the previous two games with turf toe. Mendenhall has started the past three games and rushed for 304 yards and four touchdowns.

"I'm not all the way back," said Parker. "I'm not Willie Parker, I'm not myself right now."

Parker plays, but Mendenhall gets starting nod

In other Steelers news, Tomlin acknowledged that there has been a changing of the guard at running back — at least for now.

Tomlin said Rashard Mendenhall has passed Willie Parker on the depth chart.

Mendenhall has started the Steelers' last three games and rushed for 304 yards and four touchdowns. Parker returned last Sunday after missing two games because of turf toe. He rushed for 26 yards on seven carries in the Steelers' 27-14 win against the Browns.

"It's great to have Willie back," Tomlin said, "but Rashard has the hot hand if you will."

Tomlin said the Steelers are in relatively good shape from a health standpoint.

It is likely running back Willie Parker, a former two-time Pro Bowl selection who has missed the past two games with a turf-toe injury, will be replaced again by Rashard Mendenhall, even though Parker practiced all week and said his toe is feeling better.

Right now, the Steelers do not have any planned rotation for Mendenhall and Parker, meaning how much Parker plays depends on the flow of the game. He has rushed for more than 100 yards in five consecutive games against the Browns (1-4), who rank last in the league in rush defense.
