‘In The Ugliness Of It, There’s A Lot Of Beauty:’ Cameron Heyward Praises Defense For Stepping Up Late

The Pittsburgh Steelers win ugly. They’re not blowing teams out, and they’re not winning high-scoring affairs. They’ve gotten outgained in every game this season, but they’re still 6-3. It’s ugly football, but it’s winning football for Pittsburgh. Today, the Steelers won thanks to two late interceptions, one in the end zone by Keanu Neal and one in the end zone by Damontae Kazee on the final play of the game. Defensive lineman Cameron Heyward praised the defense for stepping up, and despite allowing a lot of chunk gains and not always being in the position to win, he said there’s a lot of beauty in what the Steelers are doing.
