Cameron Heyward Wants 2020 Steelers Defense To Be Better Against Run

Pittsburgh Steelers defensive lineman Cameron Heyward has never been shy about criticizing the unit he’s the captain of. Because of that, it didn’t take long for Heyward to name off a few areas he thinks the Steelers 2020 defense needs to improve in during his Thursday Zoom session with the media.

“You know, we weren’t the number one defense,” Heyward said. “We can sit up here and say we want to be this and want to be that, but we weren’t. We led the league in sacks, and I think we led the league in turnovers, but we weren’t off the field enough to give our offense enough opportunities.
