Pittsburgh’s slogan may be “next man up” but when it comes to replacing someone like Cam Heyward, it’s next men up. Speaking to reporters ahead of Thursday’s practice, Steelers’ DC Teryl Austin says it’ll be a multi-pronged approach to filling Heyward’s shoes.

“It will be by committee,” Austin said via The Trib’s Chris Adamski. “We have a lot of young guys in the program. We’ll try to get them in, let them play to their strengths. And the different things that they do well. But it’s not going to be one guy who replaces him.
