STEELERS NEWSSteelers Making Plans To Hold 2020 Training Camp At Heinz Field
ByDave BryanPosted on June 8, 2020 at 4:12 pm 0 Comments
Maybe fans of the Pittsburgh Steelers will be able to see some training camp practices this year in person after all.

On Monday, Burt Lauten, the Steelers Director of Communications, posted on Twitter that the team is making plans to hold their 2020 training camp at Heinz Field.

Just last week the NFL informed its 32 clubs that training camps will be conducted only at team facilities this season. The Steelers share their training facility with the Pittsburgh Panthers and that would make them holding camp there extremely difficult. Additionally, the NFL’s guidelines for player health and safety amid the COVID-19 pandemic may make that a tougher place to hold training camp as they call for teams to maintain physical distancing for players, coaches and other personnel in locker rooms and meeting areas.

Heinz Field has locker rooms for both the Steelers and visiting teams as well as other areas that could be utilized for meetings that would allow for more space between those in attendance.

Details are still sketchy as to what Lauten’s declaration might mean for fans hoping to catch Steelers training camp practices in person this summer should they indeed wind up being held at Heinz Field.

The Steelers usually conduct at least one training camp practice at Heinz Field every year as part of the team’s annual Family Fun Fest celebration. That practice usually takes place late in training camp and on a Sunday evening.


With ongoing coronavirus pandemic concerns, fan interaction with players might not take place should any attendance ultimately be allowed at Heinz Field for any of the training camp practices. The team will likely release more details soon concerning the Monday announcement by Lauten.

I wonder what the housing plan is. Vets with homes stay at home, camp bodies and roster hopefuls put up at a nearby hotel?Or do they rent out an entire hotel nearby or use dorms at nearest college.

Will it matter in the grand scheme? Hell one could argue there would be less of interaction in Latrobe than in downtown Pittsburgh. I would think the chances of getting Covid would have increased in a higher populated area. It isn't like the players are on lock down after practice.

Put E'M up in a motel and rely on the CHEATRIOTS to give them an early morning fire alar.................OOoopps I mean wake up call.


I hear yaz slash, I don't have the answer but St. Vincent is a hell of a lot more isolated than down town Hienz. As far as trusting the players to stay home, T'aint happening. If they aren't all bunked in a dormitory or same building then the curfew will be un-enforceable.

If ONLY we had "Tony" still around to consult with on this matter.

idk,, using the stadium instead of St vincents or PMC,,,, makes no sense to me.

i have no doubt they would be at St. Vincent's for camp (even if it was closed to the public) if it weren't for the NFL saying otherwise.
