But according to our news partners at the Pittsburgh Tribune Review, Heinz Field is still making the first-round cut.
The big committee is led by U.S. soccer and honorary chairman Robert Kraft.
Kraft owns the New England Patriots and New England Revolution soccer.
Heinz Field is one of 49 possible stadiums up for consideration as the big team sets up its best option to submit to FIFA.
The final list needs to be submitted by March 2018.
By that time, the committee needs to trim its list to 20 to 25 stadiums.
