Butler: Steelers ‘Glad To Have’ Consistent Player, Good Leader In Cameron Heyward

In the long, illustrious history of the Pittsburgh Steelers, there’s typically a consistent theme when it comes to great players: A terrific work ethic, consistency on the field, and a clear-cut chip on their shoulder.

That certainly fits star Steelers’ defensive lineman Cameron Heyward to a T, who is somehow playing the best football of his career at 32 years of age. Steelers’ head coach Mike Tomlin has praised Heyward in the past, stating the Steelers are thankful to have him, but it was defensive coordinator Keith Butler who added more praise to Heyward’s legacy, stating the Steelers are glad to have the All-Pro game-wrecker in the trenches in Pittsburgh while speaking to reporters Thursday ahead of the matchup with the Cincinnati Bengals on the road.
