NFL Teams Begin Training Camps Focused on Defensive Line Revamps

Several NFL teams and college programs are preparing for their 2025 training camps with key positional battles and player developments to watch. BYU football's Fall camp highlights a quarterback competition, notably featuring true freshman Bear Bachmeier and wide receiver Tiger Bachmeier, both transfers with promising skillsets expected to impact the team immediately. The Jacksonville Jaguars focus on improving their defensive line and overall defense under new leadership, with notable adjustments including Arik Armstead transitioning to defensive tackle and close attention on players like Andrew Wingard and Travis Hunter. The Indianapolis Colts anticipate a Year 2 leap from defensive end Latu and look for contributions from several defensive players as they adapt to a more aggressive defensive scheme. The Pittsburgh Steelers aim to balance veteran presence and young talent on their defensive line, with players like Heyward continuing to perform at a high level and first-round pick Harmon expected to contribute immediately. Across these teams, training camps will be crucial for determining starting roles and integrating new strategies and personnel.
