Early on Thursday morning, Gerry Dulac of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reported that the Pittsburgh Steelers had officially submitted a bid to host either the 2026 or 2027 NFL Draft. This coming after a report earlier in the month that the NFL had sent scouts to the city to vet the viability of the city hosting the event.
Cameron Heyward spoke to the media before practice on Thursday and was asked about the possibility of Pittsburgh playing host to one of football’s biggest events.
“That’d be awesome,” Heyward said via a quote posted by ESPN’s Brooke Pryor on X.
