Defensive tackle Cameron Heyward isn’t ruling out the possibility of sitting out games amid a standoff with the Pittsburgh Steelers in his pursuit of a renegotiated contract.
“I think there are definitely options out there that could reflect that,” Heyward told reporters Monday, according to The Athletic’s Michael DeFabo.
Heyward signed a two-year, $29-million extension with Pittsburgh last offseason. However, he said Monday that he warned the front office at the time that he’d return to the negotiation table if he earned All-Pro honors after the team asked him to take a pay cut.
