With Steelers Training Camp just days away, Head Coach Mike Tomlin held a press conference today prior to heading to Latrobe to discuss the upcoming season.
The Steelers report to Training Camp at St. Vincent College this Sunday, July 27, at 4 p.m.
The team's first official practice is set for July 28 at 9 a.m. and afternoon practices will be open to the public.
KDKA's Mike Zappone reports that team officials expect all players to report. Also, contract negotiations are apparently going well for draft picks Rashard Mendenhall, first-round pick, and second-round pick Limas Sweed.
"We have everyone signed except for our number one and two, which is probably consistent for this time of year, progress on the negotiations is going well," said Tomlin. "We don't anticipate any of those guys having any hold-ups in terms of participating in training camp this weekend. So those things are going well on that front."
Zappone reports that phone calls to both players' agents were not returned the calls today.
Also, Tomlin said none of the players will be limited at the start of training camp except for Travis Kirschke. He said everyone that dealt with injuries in the off-season should be okay and ready to go including Willie Parker.
