Cameron Heyward continues to get it done at a high level in the NFL, even at the ripe age of 33 years old.
In his 12th season in the NFL in a rather demanding position like defensive end, the Pittsburgh Steelers’ star defensive end continued his run of dominance in 2022, recording 10.5 sacks on the season — the second straight year he’s eclipsed 10.0 sacks — earning him a spot inside Pro Football Focus’s 25 best interior defenders in the league rankings Tuesday morning.
Heyward came in at No. 5 overall in the rankings compiled by PFF’s Jonathon Macri, placing just behind Kansas City’s Chris Jones, the Giants’ Dexter Lawrence, the Jets’ Quinnen Williams, and Los Angeles’ Aaron Donald in the top 5.
