The Cincinnati Bengals welcomed tight end Tyler Eifert back to practice Wednesday, a sign the NFL's leading touchdown recipient will be on the field for Sunday's all-important divisional clash with the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Eifert sat out last Sunday's win in Cleveland after suffering a pinched nerve in his neck a week prior against St. Louis. He currently leads the league with 12 receiving touchdowns to go with 46 catches for 522 yards on the season. 

The former first-round pick was held to four catches for 39 yards by the Steelers in Week 8, a 16-10 win for the Bengals. Cincinnati can clinch the AFC North title with a victory Sunday.
