Steelers add security measures for Trump's attendance at game against Aaron Rodgers' Jets

Former NFL star wide receiver Antonio Brown took the stage during a Trump campaign rally in Latrobe, Pa., Saturday, where he criticized both Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris and her running mate, Tim Walz.

With former President Trump planning to attend the Pittsburgh Steelers' game Sunday night, the team has made security upgrades. Trump will be there to watch Steelers quarterback Russell Wilson make his first start for the team against Aaron Rodgers and the New York Jets. 

The Steelers released a statement Saturday announcing new security protocols and warning fans about potential delays. 

"With former President Trump expected to attend Sunday night's game as a guest of an individual suite holder, we are working with Secret Service and local authorities to ensure the safety and security of all our fans," the statement said. "As always, we will work to make the fan experience the same as it always is for every Steelers home game at Acrisure Stadium. 

"We encourage fans to arrive early to the parking lots and to the gates so that they can enjoy our pregame experience and our celebrations throughout the game that will honor the 50th anniversary of our Super Bowl IX team."
