The Pittsburgh Steelers had a rather damp training camp practice yesterday out at Saint Vincent College. It was perhaps the heaviest downpour Chuck Noll Field has seen with Alex Kozora in attendance, he suggested. Yet they got in “every snap” they wanted to, nevertheless, according to head coach Mike Tomlin. And he was thankful, both for that and for the rain.
“I love the uncertainty of the weather”, he told reporters, via the team’s website. “It forces us to be light on our feet and adaptable. It challenges [the players] from a mindset standpoint. It’s just opportunities to teach and to learn, and for guys to display their football character and enthusiasm and passion for the game in spite of whatever adversity the elements of the game may present”.
