In a recent appearance on NFL Network, Cam Heyward explained his “Welcome to the NFL” moment. In fact, he had two of them.
His first one came right away, his very first game, getting a taste for what the Steelers/Ravens rivalry is like.
“We were playing the Baltimore Ravens after just coming off the Super Bowl,” Heyward said. “So all the guys are hyped. We went into the game. I’m like, yeah, maybe I’ll get to play. I’m not starting at the time, but I’m like, I’ll get in there. We get out there. They smoked us.
