The 2017 Pittsburgh Steelers preseason schedule has been finalized. While the location and opponents were released this week, the dates and time were considered to be determined.
Well, they have been determined.

The Steelers official 2017 preseason schedule:
Week 1 - at NYG - 8/11 - 7:00 p.m. ET
Week 2 - vs. ATL - 8/20 - 4:00 p.m. ET
Week 3 - vs. IND - 8/26 - 7:30 p.m. ET
Week 4 - at CAR - 8/31 - 7:30 p.m. ET
As wisely pointed out by the Washington Observer-Reporter’s beat writer Dale Lolley, if you track the dates backwards, you will know the Steelers will open their 2017 training camp at St. Vincent College in Latrobe, PA on July 27th.
With the 2017 NFL Draft is right around the corner, and offseason workouts to follow, the lull which is the NFL offseason will wax and wane as the team’s prepare for the upcoming season. The preseason might be meaningless football, but meaningless football is better than no football at all, right?
Stay tuned to BTSC as the NFL usually announces the NFL regular schedule in the coming weeks.
