A lot happens in the football world during the NFL offseason. Of course, NFL teams build up their rosters through free agency and the NFL Draft. Teams then return to on-field work during rookie minicamps, OTAs, and mandatory minicamps. However, it is training camp that unofficially kicks off the new season.
Training camp is just around the corner for most teams, and it has already started for others, which means football is close to being back. So when do players need to report for training camp?
Training camp is a time for NFL teams to get their respective teams together and start preparation before the start of the season. The practices precede the preseason and are often open for the public to watch. Additionally, teams will often do joint practices with other NFL teams.
Offseason rosters are 90 players deep, but they have to be trimmed to 53 players before the start of the regular season. Training camp offers a time for players on the bottom of the roster to showcase themselves and try to make the 53-man squad.
