The Pittsburgh Steelers recently concluded their training camp in Latrobe, leaving fans eagerly anticipating the upcoming 2024 season. While most of the public could only follow the proceedings from a distance, dedicated fans relied on Steelers Depot writer Alex Kozora for in-depth coverage. Now, let's delve into the winners and losers of Steelers training camp this year.

Starting with the quarterback position, it's clear that Justin Fields emerged as a winner while Russell Wilson faced challenges. Although Fields may not be the starter, Wilson's calf injury provided Fields ample opportunity to showcase his skills. Wilson's absence from the majority of camp poses challenges for his execution of the Steelers' offensive strategy.

Beanie Bishop Jr. also emerged as an obvious winner, impressively spending most of camp as the Steelers' starting nickel. Another standout performer was DL DeMarvin Leal, who displayed exceptional consistency throughout the summer. However, it is important to note that neither player is guaranteed a spot on the final roster.

Turning to the losers, wide receiver Marquez Callaway and cornerback Josiah Scott faced disappointment as both veterans were released by the Steelers at the end of July. Cordarrelle Patterson and Dean Lowry also encountered setbacks due to their extensive time away from camp, hindering their chances of making an impact.

In the realm of rookies, there were no clear losers, despite some injuries. Roman Wilson managed to make a positive impression on the Steelers' coaches, although an ankle injury may limit his early contributions. Troy Fautanu, despite a sprained MCL, showcased his potential and has secured a starting position. Additionally, Zach Frazier is on track to start the season. Payton Wilson and Ryan Watts have also made significant strides, while Logan Lee has had a more reserved performance, with an uphill battle to secure a place on the team's roster.

As the 2024 season approaches for the Steelers, they find themselves in a familiar position after a disappointing playoff exit last year. The biggest question mark looms over the quarterback position, with Russell Wilson being the key to determining their potential as a Super Bowl-caliber team. Further adjustments to the team's depth chart remain an ongoing concern.

The Steelers' training camp and preseason have provided insight into the team's progress, with various signings, trades, and releases shaping the roster. While some gaps have been successfully filled, others still require attention. With the puzzle pieces coming together, new questions arise, adding to the anticipation surrounding the Steelers' upcoming season.
