Cam Heyward Fine With Diontae Johnson Hold In ‘If It’s Not Disrupting The Team’

Prior to taking the practice field Thursday afternoon at Saint Vincent College in Latrobe, Pittsburgh Steelers DL Cam Heyward spent some time to talk to the local media regarding his thoughts on Ben Roethlisberger’s comments that have been shared back-and-forth the past couple, holding his teammates accountable, and the natural progression of Najee Harris as a leader of the football team.

Heyward was asked about T.J. Watt’s “hold in” last year during training camp as the two sides worked to reach a contract extension and how that situation is similar to Diontae Johnson’s situation this season as he sat out of individual and team portions of practice as he looks to get a new deal done prior to the start of the regular season.
