Despite being one of the best bargains in the league, Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Antonio Brown will report to training camp Thursday, hopeful and confident that his contract will be addressed before the start of the regular season, sources familiar with the situation told ESPN.Having Brown in training camp will be one less headache for a Steelers team that already has running back LeVeon Bell facing a four-game suspension and wide receiver Martavis Bryant serving a one-year suspension.But at some point, a source says, Pittsburgh will likely be asked to consider options to compensate Brown like one of the top receivers in the game, which he has proved to be.Brown, coming off a 136-catch season in which he made $1 million in base salary, is scheduled to make $6.25 million in base salary this season. Thats less than the leagues top wide receivers make, and personnel executives have suspected that Pittsburgh could be asked to address the situation this summer.Altogether, Brown has two more years remaining on his contract and is scheduled to make $8.71 million in base salary in 2017, the last year of his contract.But when camp opens Thursday and Steelers players must report by 4 p.m. ET, Brown will be there, confident that his contract will be addressed in the coming weeks.

Thats the way Jeff Monken sees it, and he brings a solid argument to back up the assertion.Now in his third season as Armys head coach, Monken previously spent six years as an assistant at Navy. Having been an integral part of the annual duel between the esteemed service academies, Monken considers it to be the epitome of college football.On Saturday, he will proudly stand on the sideline, delighted to again be a part of something special.Every young man thats playing in the game and 9,000 other college-aged students dressed in uniform sitting in the stands have all made a pledge of commitment to serve this nation, Monken said. Ultimately, theyll put their lives on the line for all of us who arent willing to make that commitment. If people dont see this as Americas Game, I dont know that theyre paying close enough attention.It doesnt matter that neither Army (6-5) nor Navy (9-3) are in the Top 25, or that the Midshipmen have defeated the Black Knights 14 times in a row.Its just a great rivalry thats been a part of the college football landscape for over a century, Monken said.When their football careers end, the players are obligated to begin serving in the military. Those already in battle will be represented Saturday by several men who may ultimately be by their side.For all the soldiers who are laying in foxholes all over the world, chasing bad guys and standing in the gap between the freedom we enjoy and the people that want to take it from us, what an honor and privilege to represent them in a game like this where the whole nation gets to watch, Monken said.Each team wants to win, but theyre all in this thing together.Were both fierce competitors. Theyve got warriors on their side, weve got warriors on our side, Navy coach Ken Niumatalolo said. We want to beat each other, but theres a mutual respect because both schools know what these young men will be doing for their country when theyre done playing football.---Some things to know about the Army-Navy game, the 117th installment of a rivalry that began in 1890:THE STREAK: Army hasnt won since 2001 and now trails in the series 60-49-7. I dont think theres a streak, Army seenior linebacker Andrew King said.dddddddddddd The 2016 Army team has not faced the 2016 Navy team, so were 0-0 heading into this matchup, looking to go 1-0. Monken, conversely, refused to hide from the obvious You cant avoid it, he said. Everybody talks about it. Everybody says whens it going to end and whos going to end it? Theres a sense of responsibility to get a victory in this game.PLAYING FOR NO. 28: Army suffered a somber loss when sophomore cornerback Brandon Jackson was killed in a one-car crash in September. The Black Knights have dedicated the rest of the season to his memory and their gold helmets have a commemorative sticker with his number on the back. Hes definitely in our thoughts, King said. I know hed love to be out here playing with us. I know hes looking down on us.ON THE REBOUND: Navy is coming off a 34-10 defeat to Temple in the American Athletic Conference title game. Obviously its a devastating loss, Niumatalolo said. But were hoping for the same results following our other two losses. We lost to Air Force, came back and beat Houston. Lost to South Florida, came back to beat Notre Dame . So hopefully after the loss to Temple we can come back to beat our rivals.DEPLETED BY INJURY: Navy quarterback Zach Abey will make his first college start after Will Worth broke his foot against Temple. The Midshipmen also lost slot back Toneo Gulley (foot) in that game. Niumatalolo expects his team to work through it. Its who they are as people, he said. When you come to a service academy you have to deal with a lot of things, a lot of adversity. These kids become resilient. To lose these key players, its tough, but the next guy steps up.BACK TO BALTIMORE: The game has been held in Philadelphia 10 times in 13 years since 2002. Baltimore hosted in 2007 and 2014, and Landover, Maryland was the site in 2011. Navy has won three straight in Baltimore after starting with defeats in 1924 and 1944.---AP Sports Writer John Kekis in New York contributed.---More AP college football: www.collegefootball.ap.org and https://twitter.com/AP-Top25 ' ' '
