The Pittsburgh Steelers are just days out from the start of their 2023 Training Camp sessions, with rookies and veterans reporting on Thursday, July 26. With No. 32 overall pick Joey Porter Jr. as the only rookie that remains unsigned from the Steelers’ 2023 draft class, fans are left to wonder if the team will be able to get the deal done before the start of camp.
Porter Jr. participated in the team’s mandatory minicamp back in May, getting work in with the first-team defense. Attending minicamps and organized team activities (OTAs) works a little differently than training camp does, however, as unsigned rookies participate under limited contracts, paid standard rates for their participation, which do not need to be negotiated.
