Darrius Heyward-Bey has strong game for Steelers

Despite a stagnant 2014 season , Darrius Heyward-Bey is off to a great start in 2015.

Heyward-Bey turned in a strong game on Thursday evening.

The former Maryland wideout only caught three passes for 33 yards during the 2014 season. Heyward-Bey was only targeted five times and also managed to lose a fumble.

However, the 2015 season looks a lot more promising for the former Terrapin star.

Heyward-Bey caught four passes for 58 yards and was targeted seven times for the Pittsburgh Steelers in their season opener. The highlight of his night was a 43-yard catch on a deep pass from quarterback Ben Roethlisberger.
