The Pittsburgh Steelers have historically held a "Friday Night Lights" practice during training camp but this year the team was forced to move it to Saturday. It didn't stop nearly 10,000 fans from showing up to get a closer look at the team as they head into prep for the team's first preseason game.
Here are the winners and losers from Saturday's practice.
With every deep completion Allar throws, he endears himself more and more to the fanbase and puts pressure on Will Howard. Allar has made up all the ground he lost to Howard in minicamp and frankly has overtaken him in terms of optimism that he can be the team's starting quarterback at some point.
Jaylen Warren and Kaleb Johnson both had fumbles on Saturday night, which is a bad sign. Nothing to panic about but with Warren battling Rico Dowdle for reps and Johnson fighting to make the team, these errors are magnified.
Even as a seventh-round rookie, nothing seems too big for safety Robert Spears-Jennings. On Saturday, the team asked him to move to slot cornerback and he did so without hesitation. It really feels like the rookie is being set up for a fairly significant role on defense this season.
