From Pittsburgh Post Gazette:
New policy
"Tomlin ended a long-standing Steelers tradition of open policy when he barred newspaper photographers from most of practice.
He will permit the still photographers to work the early part of practice when players basically run and stretch, but not when the team moves to group drills and practice.
Tomlin explained that he's trying to protect players while they compete for jobs.
"Sometimes, a picture's worth a thousand words, and some people are going to be in some compromising positions that maybe they don't want to see themselves in," Tomlin said."
