Locke just returned from injured reserve, missing five games with a foot injury. He returned to practice Oct. 23.
Schottenheimer also said outside linebacker Malachi Lawrence has an ankle injury "that might be a little bit longer" to recover from. Lawrence, the team's other first-round rookie, has played 226 defensive snaps and 40 in special teams.
He has totaled 13 tackles, a sack and two passes defensed.
