That shows you just how deep Steeler Nation is.
We're only a few days into camp but on the days fans have been able to attend, those fans have not been disappointed.
They've been amazed at how good rookie receiver George Pickens has looked going up for catches, and obviously, there's a close watch on first-round pick Kenny Pickett's place on the quarterback depth chart.

St. Vincent's campus opens to fans at noon, practice begins at 1:55 p.m., and while practice is free, fans do need a ticket to enter. Those can be found on Ticketmaster.
