When Connor Heyward was drafted by the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2022, he entered a pretty unique situation. He got to join his older brother, Cameron, for the final portion of his career and step into a locker room that he had heard so much about. It was familiar, but not necessarily comfortable. Every rookie has an adjustment period to life in the NFL.
With Connor Heyward now going through his third training camp with the team, his older brother notices a difference in his approach.
“It’s funny; he’s definitely calmer this time around,” Cam Heyward said on NFL Network’s Inside Training Camp Live.
