HERE WE GO STEELERS!

Don’t see Calvin Anderson. He went down with an injury yesterday. Looks like he’s not going to practice.

No Aaron Rodgers today. I’d assume that’s the first vet day of camp for the 41-year-old. pic.twitter.com/ICDsUv9ZCd

Don’t see Joey Porter Jr. or Cory Trice.

— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 2, 2025

A lot of vet days today for the Steelers. Rodgers, Metcalf, Heyward, Watt, etc. not getting much work if any today. Days off after a physical Friday practice.

Seven shots starting

— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 2, 2025

Rudolph steps back and can’t find anyone open. Would’ve been a coverage sack.

— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 2, 2025

Rudolph finds an open Darnell Washington towards the back pylon a corner route for a TD. 1-1.

— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 2, 2025

Mason Rudolph throws a jump ball for Pat Freiermuth but Cole Holcomb breaks it up in tight coverage. 2-1 defense.

— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 2, 2025

Dylan Cook taking first team LT reps.

— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 2, 2025

Will Howard fires a corner route for Ben Skowronek but Beanie Bishop breaks it up. 3-1 defense.

— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 2, 2025

Will Howard threads the needle on a slant to Brandon Johnson for the touchdown. 3-2 defense.

— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 2, 2025

Skylar Thompson fires it to Kevin Folesch but Sebastian Castro breaks up the pass. 4-2 defense.

— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 2, 2025

Thompson and Max Hurleman aren’t on the same page, and the defense wins 5-2.

— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 2, 2025

Quindell Johnson with a great play against Kevin Folesch to mirror a stick and nod and get the interception.

— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 2, 2025

Darnell Washington beats Quindell Johnson on an in route but the ref calls OPI.

Gets big boos from the crowd but the right call

— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 2, 2025

James Pierre jumps and out route for Brandon Johnson and picks it off.

— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 2, 2025

James Pierre AGAIN in the one on ones period. Two interceptions; this time snuffing out a slant route for Robert Woods.

— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 2, 2025

Roman Wilson while lying on his back makes an insane concentration grab. Really nice play.

— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 2, 2025

James Pierre intercepted Mason Rudolph last night to end the two-minute drill. In one on ones today, he picks Rudolph and Howard. The veteran DB has a lot of guys ahead of him on the depth chart but has been enjoying a solid camp.

— Mike DeFabo (@MikeDeFabo) August 2, 2025

Jalen Ramsey is working as an outside corner again today with JPJ out.

— Mike DeFabo (@MikeDeFabo) August 2, 2025

Howard dots it to Freiermuth on a corner route for about 25 yards. Good throw.

— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 2, 2025

Scotty Miller beats Darius Slay on a crosser and gets a chunk gain out of it. Rudolph the quarterback.

Will Howard pulls it back on the read option and takes it about 30 yards without being touched to huge cheers.

— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 2, 2025

Chuck Clark with a really nice PBU in 7-on-7. Rudolph attempted to thread the needle.

Clark having a good camp.

— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 2, 2025

Will Howard connects on back to back TDs in 7-on-7. Kenny Gainwell and Evan Huml get them.

— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 2, 2025

Making it look easy 🤣 @_Dwfootball11 pic.twitter.com/SndXZ3bcaG

— Pittsburgh Steelers (@steelers) August 2, 2025

Maybe it’s the Steelers defense but the screen and quick game today have been totally nonexistent for the offense.

— Nick Farabaugh (@FarabaughFB) August 2, 2025

Practice closing with red zone drill from the 15.

First team offense scored on an in route from Rudolph to Heyward.

— Alan Saunders (@ASaunders_PGH) August 2, 2025

Will Howard and the 2s score on an end zone grab by Max Hurleman but a drop by Jaylen Warren didn’t help the play before that. He’s had a rough camp from a receiving standpoint.

— Brian Batko (@BrianBatko) August 2, 2025

Yahya Black is a mountain. Pass rush juice hasn’t showcased itself much, he’s still a work in progress there, but the guy is a tower in run defense. Impressive play strength at the POA.
