After reports surfaced yesterday that the NFL had decided to make teams hold their training camps at the team facilities, today, Art Rooney II released an official statement confirming the change in plans and also stating that the Steelers plan to return to St. Vincent college in 2021.
It is both disappointing and understandable that the NFL would want more control over training camp location and crowds this year, but it is also nice to know the Steelers intend to return to St. Vincent in 2021.
Here is the official statement.
We are disappointed for our fans and the city of Latrobe that we will not be able to hold our annual training camp at Saint Vincent College in 2020, but we are adhering to the policies and guidelines set forth from the NFL for teams that travel from their facilities each year.
