The defensive platform of the Pittsburgh steelers, Cameron Heyward, entered in 15th year when the training camp started for the team before the 2025 season, and it still occurs at a high level.
Heyward played the 17 games for the Steelers last year and recorded 11 shortfall breaks and eight bags on its way to its fourth selection of the first All-Pro team. But with the opening of the training camp, say goodbye to your family for a few weeks seems to become more difficult for the 36 -year -old player.

He expressed it as much in an article on social networks on Wednesday.
“The most difficult part of the camp is to kiss my children goodbye,” he wrote on X.
Fortunately for Heyward, he was with the Steelers throughout his career and it is unlikely that I will play elsewhere while it ends. Heyward was born in Pittsburgh but played football in high school in Georgia before attending the Ohio State. The Steelers selected him in the first round of the 2011 draft, and he has been from black and gold since.

Heyward has 88.5 bags, 718 plated and 199 QB safe in 211 games for the Steelers.
He is always ready to start a defensive line which should include the recruit Derrick Harmon and Keeanu Benton. TJ Watt, Patrick Queen, Payton Wilson and Alex Highsmith will probably be the seconds behind them.

The Steelers were 10-7 in 2024, making the playoffs for the fourth time in five years. Despite the offensive in difficulty, the defense was still of the first order. Pittsburgh ranked eighth in points authorized and 12th in authorized yards.
