Steel City is the place to be for a quartet of Pitt Panthers this weekend, as four former University of Pittsburgh football players are set to attend the Pittsburgh Steelers' rookie minicamp. The event, taking place at the UPMC Rooney Sports Complex, offers a prime opportunity for these local stars to showcase their skills just a stone's throw from their college home.

Leading the group is linebacker Brandon George, who initially signed with an NFL team as an undrafted free agent last year. He's now earned a tryout with the Steelers, hoping to make a lasting impression. Joining George are cornerback Rashad Battle, wide receiver Raphael Williams, and edge rusher Joey Zelinsky, all of whom will be looking to turn heads during the camp.

For these Panthers, the chance to compete in Pittsburgh's rookie minicamp is more than just convenient—it's a shot at continuing their football journeys in the city where they honed their craft. With the Steelers known for their rich history and passionate fanbase, this weekend could be the start of something special for these athletes.
