Every NFL team is preparing for a season in circumstances none of us have ever seen. On Tuesday, Pittsburgh Steelers veterans are scheduled to report for the 2020 version of training camp in hopes of bouncing back from a hugely disappointing 2019 season.

Steelers preside Art Rooney II released the following statement about the upcoming season:

We are excited to come to an agreement with the NFLPA on terms for a return to play for our upcoming training camps around the League. We are looking forward to having our players report to Heinz Field next week to start the conditioning and acclimation process in order to prepare for on-field action later in August.

It is great that we can move forward with the agreed-upon plans to get ready for what we believe will be an exciting season on the field, while we navigate through these uncertain times off the field.

The goal of this season for the Steelers and every team is to get a great product on the field while still maintaining as much safety as possible.
