Steelers 2025 Mandatory Minicamp: The Latest Reports from Day 3 on Thursday
The Pittsburgh Steelers have finished Phase Three of 2025 OTAs. With Phase One starting in mid April, the Steelers have been building up to this final week where they have three days of work before the 40-day hiatus until reporting to trading camp on July 23. Even though it is just with practice jerseys and “football in shorts,“ it is still an opportunity to see these players one more time in action.
Looking for information as to what’s going on at mandatory minicamp, a compilation from various sources can be seen below. As more information becomes available, it will be added. The information in chronological order (as best as I can) with the newest reports at the bottom of the stream.
NOTE: There were no pre-practice reports and interviews today, so this is the only tracker.

Mike Tomlin said the reason the Steelers are returning to afternoon practices this year in training camp is because “it wasn’t hot enough” in the 2024 morning workouts. He said acclimating the heat is a major component of the process.

Mike Tomlin just wrapped up minicamp and said he isn’t gonna speculate on TJ Watt’s presence for training camp, or lack thereof, but believes both sides want to get this deal done. Also added they’ve been in communication throughout Watt’s minicamp absence. pic.twitter.com/Gzpw7tASF0

The Steelers just wrapped minicamp. Mike Tomlin said there were no injuries this week that will keep anyone out for the beginning of training camp, which begins July 24 at Saint Vincent College in Unity Township.

Mike Tomlin on the outlook of TJ Watt reporting to training camp in five weeks:
“I'm not going to get into speculation there… I'm optimistic we're going to get things done because we got two sides that want to get things done. When that's going to occur I do not know.”

After a year of mid-morning practices, Mike Tomlin shifted training camp practice back to afternoon starts.

No additional injuries, thank goodness. What to do for 40 days?
speculate about WRs and TJs contract probably 🙁
its going to be a long 6 weeks.
Someone other than, say, Keenan Allen.
(repeating to myself) “Silly season is almost over, Silly season is almost over, Silly season is almost over, Silly season is almost over.” 😂
The league likes the silly… sadly.
The video with all 4 QB’s doing the rollout throw: what a difference. Mason and Aye Aye Ron were on the money. Skylar and Will, not so much.
AARod may help Howard w/that, which is good. AR8 is not Farve.
Howard will be lucky to make the 53. Temper expectations.
What expectations? Did Aaron not say he would mentor Howard? What you mean?
Howard will make the 53. They’re not going to keep Skylar over him unless Howard is absolutely terrible in Camp and the preseason.
Yes, Howard will, Skylar’s awful. Is that what Trukks is on about? Thought he was on about the veracity of Pgh’s QB1.
Naw. Aye Aye Ron is a know commodity. I think Howard is not good at all. I really think he might not make the 53.
You’ve clearly not seen Skylar play, Trukk. Who is Aye Aye Ron? He in the Navy?
So AB’s wanted for attempted murder. Not good.
IMO, people are sweating over TJ’s deal, and I think it will not only get done, I think he’s (as a veteran) just not in a hurry to get to camp.
No sweating here.
yep. One helmet guy.
Yes.
