La primera práctica Training Camp inició de manera oficial el jueves 25 de julio en Saint Vincent College en Latrobe. La gran noticia de este primer entrenamiento fue que Russell Wilson no participó por una molestia en la pierna, por lo que pudimos ver a Justin Fields tomar las repeticiones con el equipo titular y fluyó bastante bien.
"Estaba emocionado (Fields) por la oportunidad de liderar al primer equipo y tomar la carga hoy, fue una buena tarde" comentó Mike Tomlin sobre el desempeño del recién llegado al equipo.
Para la segunda práctica de nueva cuenta no vimos a Wilson participar por la misma molestia, Fields tuvo una práctica mucho más fluida con jugadas increíbles como un pase de 50 yardas a George Pickens, un par de escapadas por tierra y buenos pases a lo largo de la tarde. Kyle Allen también tuvo la oportunidad de brillar en ciertas jugadas como quarterback durante la práctica.
El sábado se llevó a cabo el "Back together Weekend" en el que los Pittsburgh Steelers anunciaron a su clase del Hall of Honor 2024 que incluye a Jason Gildon, Casey Hampton, Dick LeBeau y Willie Parker ante un abarrotado campo en Saint Vincent.
"Es increíble sentir la presencia de los fans. Regresar a la vida del futbol americano es hermoso y la presencia de los fanáticos es parte importante de eso. Agradecemos su presencia y la gran atmósfera que crearon. Fue un hermoso fin de semana", comentó nuestro head coach.
A destacar que Russell Wilson regresó a su ritmo con actividad separada del grupo.
El domingo se llevó a cabo la última práctica antes de empezar con los entrenamientos equipados. Coach Tomlin destacó el gran trabajo de la defensiva y el olfato tan fino mostrado por los jugadores en busca del balón.
"Creo que nuestros jugadores fueron muy agresivos en términos de perseguir el balón, provocar balones sueltos, y leyendo muy bien las jugadas. Eso es un componente fundamental de cómo trabajamos aquí", dijo ante los medios Mike Tomlin.
Los Pittsburgh Steelers regresarán a las prácticas este martes en Saint Vincent College y comenzarán los entrenamientos ya equipados. Lo que permitirá desarrollar mejor los aspectos técnicos de cara al primer partido de la pretemporada la siguiente semana.
