Pittsburgh Steelers DL Cameron Heyward made very clear yesterday that he wants a new contract. While he acknowledged the reality of the odds for a 35-year-old lineman coming off injury cashing in, however, he’s not prepared to sell himself short. He addressed the topic of contracts for players in his position after reporting to OTAs yesterday.
“I think there’s not a lot of history behind it, but for me, I look it as I’m not looking to be like anybody else”, Heyward said, via the team’s website, about older players in his position earning substantial new contracts.
