Attendance was perfect for reporting day at Pittsburgh Steelers training camp. It wasn’t quite perfect, though, in regards to full health of the 91-man roster.

For the first 2 minutes of speaking with media covering his new team, veteran defensive back Jalen Ramsey stuck to the script.

SPECIALISTS 9 CHRIS BOSWELL · 6-2 · 185 Should Boswell have been the Steelers’ 2024 team MVP? After going 76 of 79 on kicks and making first-team All-Pro, Boswell took the torch from Justin Tucker as the league’s best kicker. 29 BEN SAULS · 5-9 · 182 Barring injury, Sauls...

OFFENSE Quarterbacks 8 AARON RODGERS · 6-2 · 223 One of the greatest quarterbacks of all time, the four-time NFL MVP isn’t at that level anymore at age 41. No one is. But he’s still probably an upgrade from what the Steelers have had at QB over the past half-decade....
