When the Pittsburgh Steelers came out onto the field for their first padded practice of training camp, it looked like QB Russell Wilson would make his long-awaited camp debut. He was wearing his pads and helmet, and he even began work in individual sessions and the stretch line. But once practice progressed, it became clear that he was being eased back into the fold. He sat out of most of the team sessions other than a couple handoffs near the end of practice. But he did participate in 7-on-7 at the end of the day and worked with the first-team offense where he completed all six of his attempts.
