Training camp will not be held in Latrobe this season due to the COVID-19 outbreak. The NFL is requiring teams to hold training camps at their home facilities. 

Steelers owner Art Rooney II made the following statement on Wednesday regarding the team not hosting training camp at St. Vincent for the first time in 54 years:

“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. 

We look forward to returning to training camp at Saint Vincent College in 2021.”
