It’s that time of the year again. Steelers Training Camp is officially 6 days away from being in full swing. This has been a big offseason for the defense. There are so many new players for the unit.

This is going to be a big camp for the defense to start their rebuilding to be the top defense in the league again. Not only that, but to also help bring another Lombardi to Pittsburgh.

Steelers Training Camp 2023: Predicting the Starting Offense

by James Layton

With the Steelers first practice of training camp taking place in six days. I thought who will be the starting offensive that day. This is going to be first time Kenny Pickett is going to be taking the field at camp as the starting quarterback.

This is going to be a big camp for the offense, they now have a full-time starting quarterback and some key additions to the offensive line. So now is the time to build the chemistry of the whole unit.

Let’s get into the Offense.

  • Quarterback: Kenny Pickett
  • Running Back: Najee Harris
  • Fullback: Monte Pottebaum
  • Wide Receive 1: Diontae Johnson
  • Wide Receiver 2: George Pickens
  • Wide Receiver 3: Allen Robinson
  • Tight End: Pat Freiermuth
  • Left Tackle: Dan Moore Jr
  • Left Guard: Isacc Seumalo
  • Center: Mason Cole
  • Right Guard: James Daniels
  • Right Tackle: Chuks Okorafor
