Upcoming 2025 Pittsburgh Steelers offseason workout schedule
It may be hard to believe, but spring is officially here and that means the National Football League is starting to ramp up. With the first wave of free agency and the NFL’s league meetings now in the past, big events await. With the NFL Draft and even rookie minicamp on the horizon, the rest of the remaining offseason events would be Organized Team Activities (OTAs) and Mandatory Minicamp.
Before discussing the dates, let’s first take a look at the three phases of offseason workouts. This courtesy of the Steelers official website:
Phase One consists of the first two weeks of the program with activities limited to meetings, strength and conditioning, and physical rehabilitation only.
Phase Two consists of the next three weeks of the program. On-field workouts may include individual or group instruction and drills, as well as “perfect play drills,” and drills and plays with offensive players lining up across from offensive players and defensive players lining up across from defensive players, conducted at a walk-through pace. No live contact or team offense vs. team defense drills are permitted.
Phase Three consists of the next four weeks of the program. Teams may conduct a total of 10 days of organized team practice activity, or “OTAs”. No live contact is permitted, but 7-on-7, 9-on-7, and 11-on-11 drills are permitted.
The NFL has divided the offseason into three phases, with it all kicking off for the Steelers on April 21 when players report for voluntary workouts that are limited to strength and conditioning. It will culminate with the team’s mandatory veteran minicamp, which will be held June 10-12. All offseason programs are closed to the public.
The Steelers Organized Team Activities (OTAs) are officially set to begin on May 27 and run through June 5.
