Report: Burnett, Dupree Open 2018 Minicamp Not Fully Healthy

The Pittsburgh Steelers 2018 mandatory minicamp got underway on Tuesday and according to the Pittsburgh-Tribune-Review, two defensive players, safety Morgan Burnett and outside linebacker Bud Dupree, both have injuries that are limiting their availability.

Burnett, who signed a three-year free agent contract with the Steelers back in March after spending the first eight seasons in the NFL with the Green Bay Packers, reportedly said he “was fine” on Tuesday after confirming he did not practice earlier in the day. For what it’s worth, Burnett missed four games last season as a member of the Packers due to hamstring and groin injuries.
