In less than a month, the Pittsburgh Steelers will be getting together at Saint Vincent College for training camp. The team will have 90 players at camp before trimming down to their 53-man roster. Many of these players we don’t know a whole lot about. Here is a rundown of the guys known and unknown we will be keeping a close eye on.
