Justin Fields Calls Steelers Camp The Hardest He’s Been Through: ‘Wouldn’t Want It Any Other Way’

The Pittsburgh Steelers are known to run one of the most difficult training camps in the league. There are very few camps that get held off-premise, and even fewer that feature full contact and tackling. It is an old school approach, which is maybe fitting given that Mike Tomlin is among the longest-tenured head coaches in the NFL. As he has explained multiple times now, “It’s tough to box without sparring.” They don’t want to leave any evaluations up to the imagination, and tackling is the best way to achieve that goal. For Justin Fields, entering his fourth season in the league, he called it the hardest camp he has been through.
