For the first time since 2012, the Pittsburgh Steelers will travel for a road game on gameday. The team announced they have been given the approval to travel to Buffalo for their game against the Bills the day of the game due to the multiple short weeks.
Here is the team’s official statement:
“Due to a number of schedule adjustments which resulted in the Steelers playing on a short week 2 weeks in a row, we requested and were approved by the League Office to travel on game day to Buffalo for our Sunday night game. Our preparations and meetings will be conducted in Pittsburgh Saturday evening, and the team will then fly to Buffalo on Sunday morning and continue day-of-game preparations upon arrival in Buffalo.”
The Steelers currently sit at 11-1 and are looking to get back on track after suffering their first loss last week against the Washington Football Team. The Steelers’ entire season has been turned on its head since early on when their game against the Tennessee Titans had to be moved due to a COVID-19 outbreak with the Titans.
