Behind the Steel Curtain
The Pittsburgh Steelers begin their 2025 season on Sunday against the New York Jets, but all anyone can continue to talk about is Cam Heyward and the possibility of him sitting out in protest over a lack of a new contract.
Heyward returned to practice on Friday after what was designated as a veteran’s day off on Thursday and spoke to the media afterwards, strongly hinting he would sit out on Sunday if that’s what it came to.
“I wish I had a straight answer for you right now,” Heyward said via Nick Farabaugh. “All I can tell you is I’ve had a lot of tough conversations with my family.”
If Heyward does sit out, the Steelers will be down two starters, as Derrick Harmon won’t play due to a knee injury. This will spring Yahya Black into a major role against the Jets’ interior offensive line.
