Mandatory minicamp is a small, three-day event in late spring or early summer. It’s a time for new players to get acclimated with the coaches.
There are no pads in minicamp. It’s strictly a time to focus on reviewing the playbook and working on their technique. According to NFL insiders, two key pass rushers will not attend their respective minicamps this week. Steelers’ T.J. Watt and Bengals’ Trey Hendrickson will be subject to fines for missing minicamp.
