Cam Heyward isn’t focusing on his post-career accolades. If anything, he’s playing for the moment to add to his eventual and final NFL resume. He intends to play another three seasons to add to all that he’s done so far. But one NFL historian believes if Heyward hung up his cleats today, he’d be enshrined in Canton.
John Turney entertained for the question in a Tuesday “State Your Case” article for Talk of Fame TWO, a website that covers all things Hall of Fame and legacy related. Turney noted Heyward is a curious case who doesn’t fit neatly into a single bucket, a defensive end who has shifted roles and alignments throughout his career.
