The Pittsburgh Steelers revealed their training camp schedule on Thursday. It will once again take place at St. Vincent College in Unity Township. Outside of 2020 and 2021 due to COVID-19, the Steelers have held their training camp at St. Vincent College every year since 1966.
Players will report on Tuesday, July 28. The first practice open to the public will be held on Wednesday, July 29 at 11 a.m. The first padded practice will take place on Monday, August 3, also scheduled for 11 a.m.
Instead of having a Friday Night Lights practice, the annual night practice will take place on Saturday, Aug. 8 at Latrobe Memorial Stadium at approximately 6 p.m.
All of the practices start at 11 a.m. except for Saturday night. Under Mike Tomlin, practices usually started at 1:55 p.m.
The final practice open to the public at St. Vincent College will be on Monday, Aug. 17 at 11 a.m.
Only five NFL teams hold their training camps away from their home facilities — the Steelers (St. Vincent College), Buffalo Bills (St. John Fisher University), Kansas City Chiefs (Missouri Western State University), Los Angeles Rams (Loyola Marymount University and Dallas Cowboys (Marriott Residence Inn in Oxnard, Calif.).
St. Vincent College released a sneak peek into the Dunlap Family Athletic and Recreation Center. The new indoor facility is scheduled for completion this summer. It will feature a 70-yard indoor turf field, basketball/tennis courts, a track, and workout rooms, serving student-athletes, the community, and the Steelers.
The Dunlap Family Athletic and Recreation Center will provide an indoor facility for the Steelers when inclement weather occurs. In the past when weather issues came up, the Steelers had to practice in St. Vincent College's basketball gym or travel nearly an hour away to the UPMC Rooney Sports Complex.
Admission to open practices at St. Vincent College is free for fans, but attendees must have a mobile ticket. Season ticket holders will have early access to secure their tickets via Ticketmaster on Friday, May 22, at 10 a.m.
