McCorkle: Five Steelers Entering Make Or Break Training Camp Competitions

The Pittsburgh Steelers will walk into Latrobe Pennsylvania with a 90-man roster at the end of July, but they will walk out of camp with a 53-man roster. There are competitions taking place at every position on the team, whether it’s to be the starter or the backup. It is also a young man’s game, so players entering year three or four of their contract who have barely been clinging to the back end of the roster have an increased level of pressure. It can be the difference between millions of dollars on a second contract, and it all starts with earning a job at training camp.
