Summary
Nine seconds remained when Pat Freiermuth beat first-team coverage for a 23-yard touchdown from Aaron Rodgers, capping Pittsburgh’s fourth training-camp practice at Chuck Noll Field.
The score finished an 11-play drive that started at the Steelers’ 35 with 1:51 left, with Rodgers converting key third- and fourth-down throws before quick completions set up the seam strike.
Asante Samuel Jr. and Brandin Echols broke up passes during the march, but right tackle Dylan Cook said Rodgers’ command in situational work shows the offense can capitalize if protection holds.
Saturday marked the second straight successful 2-minute period for the first-team offense after DK Metcalf scored in the previous one, reinforcing early chemistry during acclimation week before pads go on Monday.
