Cam Heyward and T.J. Watt are once again fixtures on NFL top-100 lists, but despite Pittsburgh’s offseason talent boost, they were the only Steelers deemed worthy by ESPN this year.
Heyward was arguably the best defensive tackle in the NFL last season, but these lists are about projecting future performances, and ESPN seems to think Heyward’s age will start to catch up with him in 2025 with a No. 58 ranking on the top 100. He was ranked 75th on the same list last year, so his first-team All-Pro season only bumped him up 17 spots.
