The 2024 NFL season is quickly approaching, with training camps set to kick off soon. Training camps serve as the starting point for all 32 teams to prepare for the upcoming season. While rookies and June minicamps help build chemistry, the true work begins when everyone heads to training camp. Here’s everything you need to know about the 2024 NFL training camp season.
**When and Where Are the 2024 NFL Training Camps?**
Each team has not officially announced the dates of their training camps yet. Typically, teams report to camp in late July with rookies arriving first, and camp usually wraps up in mid-August. However, all 32 teams have their camp locations confirmed. Some teams will be moving to new locations this summer, including the New Orleans Saints and Las Vegas Raiders, who will be heading to California. Here are the training camp destinations for each team:
**Arizona Cardinals**
Location: State Farm Stadium, Glendale, Ariz.
**Atlanta Falcons**
Location: Seckinger High School, Buford, Ga.
**Baltimore Ravens**
Location: Under Armour Performance Center, Owings Mills, Md.
And so on for all the NFL teams with their respective training camp locations.
**Who Will Be Attending NFL Training Camp?**
Every member of the roster is expected to attend training camp, including rookies and players rehabbing from injuries sustained in the previous season. Rookies have an earlier reporting date to get acclimated to the team. Players not cleared to practice can still report to undergo treatment plans to return to action. However, players involved in contract disputes may not attend camp and could face fines.
**What Should We Expect From NFL Training Camp?**
Fans can expect to see their favorite teams in action during training camp. This includes events like “Back Together Saturday” where fans are invited to watch practice. Training camp begins with a five-day acclimatization period that includes physicals, meetings, and conditioning drills. Position battles intensify as players compete for roster spots.
**How Many Players Are Cut From NFL Training Camp?**
Training camp starts with 90 players on each roster but eventually gets trimmed down. The process of cutting players typically begins after the preseason games in August. Teams must reduce their rosters to 53 players before the regular season begins, resulting in the release of 37 players per team. Released players can still join the practice squad.
**NFL Training Camp Storylines To Watch For**
Training camps bring many intriguing storylines for fans to follow. This year, fans can look forward to watching the highly scrutinized rookie quarterback class, returning starters aiming to bounce back from injuries, and potential holdouts due to contract disputes. Training camps are a crucial time for teams to assess their rosters and make decisions before the start of the season.
