Connor Heyward Willing To Do Whatever Coaches Need, Including Play Fullback

So far as a member of the Pittsburgh Steelers, Connor Heyward has shown that he truly is a positionless guy, one who is a tried-and-true “football player.”

Many like to give him that label as a compliment, including myself.

It’s one he’s adopted entering Year 3 in the NFL.

Speaking with reporters Tuesday following the latest Organized Team Activities session at the UPMC Rooney Sports Complex on the South Side, Heyward said he views himself as a football player and is willing to do whatever the coaching staff asks of him.

“All the above,” Heyward said when asked what he is at this point, according to video via Yardbarker’s Aaron Becker on Twitter.
