Pittsburgh Steelers DL Cameron Heyward is currently staying home while the team conducts offseason workouts ahead of OTAs. It’s the first time in his career that he has skipped the voluntary team activity. It’s also the first time the Steelers will hold OTAs while Heyward is recovering from offseason surgery during a contract negotiation.
Entering the final year of his contract at age 35, Heyward reportedly wants an extension from Pittsburgh. Many wanted the Steelers to ask him for a pay cut, which they didn’t, but could they offer him more instead? How they approach it will be a major storyline down the road, potentially, but for now, should we care?
