With the initial 53-man roster and practice squad set, all attention now shifts to Week 1. But before they travel to kick off the season against the New York Jets, there is one important piece of business to take care of. Cam Heyward wants a new contract, and he’s at least floated the idea of holding out if it doesn’t get done.

Fellow DL Isaiahh Loudermilk was asked about Heyward after practice today.

“Regardless of what was going on, he is out there now, and I know he will be out there for the games, doing what he does: defeating blocks and getting after people,” Loudermilk said via Mark Kaboly on X.
