Highsmith was on the sector with no seen wrap on his leg, a small however optimistic signal. Austin had no indicators of seen harm and moved round nicely, however he’s clearly coping with one thing. Warren went via stretch line and jogged/labored off to the aspect, an indication he’ll return earlier than camp ends.
Practising immediately had been TE Pat Freiermuth, CB Joey Porter Jr., DL Esezi Otomewo. Freiermuth had Sunday off whereas Porter handled a minor harm that precipitated him to overlook three practices. He didn’t work throughout the workforce durations however went via particular person periods and additional drills throughout the particular groups interval. Otomewo labored in full, his first apply since hurting his knee final Wednesday. Appears to be like like his proper knee as a result of he nonetheless had a sleeve on it.
DL Cam Heyward mainly hasn’t practiced throughout workforce durations when the workforce is in pads and hitting. He dressed and went via particular person work whereas doing conditioning on the aspect all through apply.
– QB Will Howard left after the second workforce interval attributable to a right-hand harm. I didn’t see the way it occurred, however Mike Tomlin stated it got here on an alternate. TE Jonnu Smith additionally didn’t end attributable to a sore knee. As our Tim Rice famous, he left in a van as a substitute of a cart.
– New Steelers CB Daryl Porter Jr. is carrying No. 39, taking Minkah Fitzpatrick’s quantity. Pittsburgh might be out of numbers at hand out to defensive backs since TE Kevin Foelsch, not a DB, was launched to make room for Porter on the roster. I assume he may’ve taken No. 30 for camp however these extra established jerseys like Jaylen Warren’s sometimes aren’t handed out twice. Porter labored in full immediately for his first workforce apply.
– Payton Wilson and Mason McCormick had been the primary gamers to stroll down the steps at 1:23 PM/EST. T.J. Watt got here down two minutes later. McCormick likes to get down early to seek out some shade on the bench. Watt wore slides onto the sector earlier than becoming his cleats which have No. 90 on the again of them.
– SS DeShon Elliott is normally first on the JUGs machine. I counted him catching 47 passes on it pre-practice.
– Defensive lineman Logan Lee continues to do some occasional lengthy snapping on the aspect.
– First-team o-line was established order: Broderick Jones-Isaac Seumalo-Zach Frazier-Mason McCormick-Troy Fautanu. Jones and Seumalo nonetheless get lifted for a handful of first-team reps however are 95-percent contributors.

– Punt return strains: Robert Woods, Scotty Miller, Max Hurleman, and Ke’Shawn Williams.
– RB Evan Hull getting reps because the upback on the punt workforce. ILB Carson Bruener and RB Trey Sermon working as wings.
– My angle wasn’t the very best and there weren’t refs to verify it nevertheless it appeared like Ok Chris Boswell hit from 60 in warmups from the center discipline.
– That is the “crimson line” Aaron Rodgers talked about in relation to Mike Williams final 12 months. The road of a apply discipline to maintain receivers from getting too near the sideline and staying on their landmarks on vertical routes.
– Tom Arth taking part in “cross rusher” and making an attempt to knock the ball out as quarterbacks went via footwork and ball-security drills.
– Working backs having to keep away from the “tire” in a drill, RBs coach Eddie Faulkner rolling a spherical bag on the again and forcing him to alter course a sure means. At all times one thing fascinating Faulkner is doing in his drills to maintain issues contemporary.
– The Pivot podcast crew of Ryan Clark, Channing Crowder, and Fred Taylor had been available immediately. Clark signed a bunch of interviews pre-practice and spent the day watching apply, together with chatting up Jalen Ramsey for a couple of minutes.

Rodgers appears proper and comes again left. Fires for Roman Wilson, who makes a pleasant sliding/falling seize for the rating. Good play.
4. Mason Rudolph subs in. In shotgun, handoff to Kaleb Johnson, who will get over aim line standing up for the rating.
5. O-line of Cook dinner-Scharping-McCollum-Anderson-S. Jones
Rudolph pumps proper aspect earlier than hitting TE JJ Galbreath proper aspect. Ball is caught however he’s taken down quick, unable to stretch his arm throughout the aim line. No refs to formally rule it nevertheless it appeared quick and the gamers’ response indicated the identical.
6. Jack Sawyer and DeMarvin Leal the EDGE gamers. WR Ke’Shawn Williams goes in movement. QB Will Howard with a superb learn, working flat-to-slant and hitting WR Brandon Johnson for a landing.
7. Nick Broeker in at heart, Aiden Williams in at proper guard. Fumble right here sooner or later, both with the alternate or the handoff, and the protection recovers. DeMarvin Leal picks it up and runs it again to about midfield. Based mostly on Mike Tomlin’s post-practice feedback, this will likely have been the play Howard damage his hand.

2. Good jab off the road by Brandon Johnson. James Pierre nonetheless covers it nicely as they go vertically however Johnson tracks the ball over his left shoulder and hauls it in.
3. Scotty Miller beats D’Shawn Jamison on a slant, Miller releasing exterior and stemming again in to tug away from the contact.
4. New DB Daryl Porter Jr. will get grabby on WR Lance McCutcheon, breaking downhill and breaking it up. If the refs had been there, this most likely would’ve been holding.
5. WRs coach Zach Azzanni with a fast phrase to rookie WR Roc Taylor earlier than his rep. Cameron McCutcheon has good protection, however Taylor is simply too good at catching back-shoulder fades, twisting and making the seize alongside the left sideline. Nothing McCutcheon can do about it.

For the ultimate rep a couple of minutes later, Hurleman and a DB (Jamison, I assume based mostly on the above) have a winner-take-all rep. Hurleman runs an out route and makes a diving seize alongside the sideline, making the catch and is worked up for the play. Will get up and spins the ball. Defensive backs compelled to do pushups for dropping, together with Ramsey on his break day. I feel DBs coach Gerald Alexander joined them.

Energy/hole run left aspect with Connor Heyward pulling. Jaylen Warren carry.

– Aaron Rodgers and DK Metcalf stayed after apply, Rodgers throwing passes to his WR1.
– Mason Rudolph was one of many final gamers off the sector and was swarmed for autographs as followers tried to get yet another participant to signal earlier than leaving.
Camp Recap (TL;DR)
– Greatest apply of camp for WR Roman Wilson. A number of good reps immediately and related with Aaron Rodgers extra immediately than he has any day of camp. Rookie Max Hurleman additionally shined all through apply, particularly the 2-minute drill. Brandon Johnson has wolfed up touchdowns within the crimson zone too. His measurement is an asset, although he’s been quieter to different parts of the sector.
– Good to see Skylar Thompson push the ball downfield just a little bit immediately, even when that was partially because of the 2-minute drill. He ran it nicely even when the offense got here up 1 yard quick.
– Hopefully Will Howard’s harm isn’t severe. With gameday on Saturday, he may not be out there for his NFL debut.
– Spencer Anderson has performed left sort out, left guard, and proper guard in camp.
– General, not seeing a ton from the backup lineman that basically evokes me. Calvin Anderson had some wins earlier than getting damage and Dylan Cook dinner has had his moments, too. Must see it in-game however the backup o-linemen aren’t standing out. The perfect starter of camp thus far is RT Troy Fautanu.
– With Cam Heyward getting one other half day, Yahya Black obtained some first-team reps immediately. He’s had a pleasant camp and is taking a few of these reps from Isaiahh Loudermilk.
Tomlin actually isn’t letting Heyward do something in pads. A high-quality concept provided that Heyward is 36, however he’s been as restricted as ever. Maybe fewer days off than final 12 months however his camp has been operating some gassers and hitting the blocking sled or operating the ring all through apply.
– Nostril sort out Daniel Ekuale is robust with a superb bull rush.
– Jack Sawyer continues to hurry sensible. He wins in a number of methods.
– It was once guys who get signed take a apply or two working off to the aspect earlier than working in workforce durations. Not anymore. A man like Daryl Porter Jr. will get put to work in full instantly to try to catch the transferring practice.
Saint Vincent Snapshot
The aforementioned push-ups the defensive backs needed to do as “punishment” for dropping that final rep on Hurleman’s catch.
15 Longest Steelers Touchdowns
Clips of the longest scores in Steelers’ historical past.
98 yards – Will Blackwell (2000)
