2021 Steelers Training Camp: Day 2 with Fans

[Steeler Nation]

Another exciting day at Heinz Field as the Pittsburgh Steelers took to day two of training camp with fans in the stands. Reports, feedback and analysis continue to pour in as it’s clear cornerback James Pierre is still impressing everyone, wide receiver Diontae Johnson is playing with a huge chip on his shoulder, and rookie running back Najee Harris continues to prove he can literally do it all.

Veteran cornerback, Joe Haden had the day off today which gave Pierre a chance to play with the starters on defense, while Ray-Ray McCloud and Ricco Bussey dazzled on offense.

At the end of practice, Steelers reporter Missi Matthews had a chance to catch up with inside linebacker, Robert Spillane as he gave his take on the day, as well as his thoughts on fellow inside backer, Devin Bush:

The day wasn’t all perfect however as a couple more injuries took place on the field. Although initially reported not to be “serious,” we will still keep yinz updated and in the loop as these situations unfold:

Coach Tomlin on injuries:
Eric Ebron (elbow) and Cody White (hamstring) held out of practice. Jaylen Samuels and Dax Raymond left practice before it was over. Still being evaluated.
Joe Haden given a day off, which gave James Pierre an opportunity to get first team reps.

Another notable name that surprisingly ran a bit with the second team today, but was also seen off to the side was offensive guard, Kevin Dotson. We will continue to keep yinz posted on his progression from injury:

Kevin Dotson isn't fully participating, but he is in shells and wearing a helmet while he does work off to the side. Improvement for the LG who hasn't practiced yet.

Bussey is interesting I will have to look into the kid some more. Anyone know him well feel free to share...

Here is what I found on him. Looks like an injury set him back. I haven't looked at his tape yet. If I will be able to find any. https://www.nfl.com/prospects/rico-bussey/32004255-5377-2405-6fba-5f1258bef2a5
