All the players are in town, the timed runs have been completed, and now it is time to get down to work.  The Steelers will hold their first practice this afternoon.  The practice with out pads starts at 2:55.  The gates open at St. Vincent College at noon. Off the top, the team got an apology from RB Le’Vion Bell for causing a distraction. Bell is facing a four game suspension for violating the NFL’s drug policy. Back and ready for action is center Maurkice Pouncey. Pouncey missed the entire 2015 season due to a broken ankle with compications in the pre-season.  The first pre-season game is Friday August 12th against the Detroit Lions at Heinz Field.
