Steelers DE Cameron Heyward wants less distractions in 2018

LAKE BUENA VISTA, Fl. -- Reflecting on a Pittsburgh Steelers season stocked with weekly drama, defensive end Cameron Heyward would like to see less of it in 2018.

Heyward told ESPN from this week's Pro Bowl that the team would be wise to chill from the distractions and antics after a 13-win season ended with a playoff loss to Jacksonville.

"I just challenge all of us to not let that stuff happen again," Heyward said. "Who's to say we have to have all that stuff going on? We can be a better team because of it, grow from it, but that stuff is not going to get us anywhere.
