The Steelers haven't held their training camp at Saint Vincent College the past two years, breaking a string of camps at the Westmoreland County college that dated back to the 1960s.
This year, they'll start a new streak.
As was expected with the lifting of many of the COVID-19 restrictions around the country, the Steelers announced Wednesday they'll return to Saint Vincent College for their training camp later this year.
"We are very excited to return to Saint Vincent College for our Training Camp later this summer," said Steelers President Art Rooney II. "We always appreciate the support from Saint Vincent as well as the Latrobe community. We look forward to having fans back on campus as we will be preparing for the 2022 season. We thank Father Paul Taylor and the tremendous staff on campus for their continued support for our return to our summer home."
The Steelers first began holding training camps at Saint Vincent College in 1966 and have gotten large crowds there to watch the practice sessions. It has given many fans over the years an opportunity to meet the team's stars and get autographs and photos taken with the players.
The team enjoys the setting because it allows the players to be sequestered in one area and allow for team building.
With Saint Vincent College not an option the past two years because of locker room restrictions and other issues, the Steelers held their training camps at Heinz Field.
The official dates for training camp have not yet been set, but the NFL is expected to release its 2022 schedule sometime around May 10-12. Teams can report to camp 14 days before their first scheduled preseason game.
