While its yet to be seen if the Pittsburgh Steelers will be able to get defensive captain Cameron Heyward signed to a contract extension prior to the start of the 2020 regular season, it is starting to sound more and more like the team will do everything in their power to keep their former first-round draft pick in the fold past this season.
On Wednesday, Steelers team president Art Rooney II talked to several media members and at one point he was asked to comment on Heyward and a possible contract extension.
“No doubt, Cam has been an outstanding player for us on and off the field,” Rooney II said, according to Joe Rutter of the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review.
