Pittsburgh Steelers DL Cameron Heyward has made it clear that he wants to sign a new contract with the Steelers this offseason, but so far, there hasn’t seemed to be much progress between the Steelers and their defensive captain. The Athletic’s Mark Kaboly reported today that Heyward is “not optimistic” a deal will get done, which could lead to Heyward becoming a free agent for the first time in his career in 2025.
“He’s not optimistic, at this point, that a deal will get done, but he’s been in a similar position before eventually signing before the season.
