Cameron Heyward Set To Miss Multiple Weeks

Cameron Heyward Set To Miss Multiple Weeks

one year ago

Pittsburgh Steelers six-time Pro Bowl defensive lineman Cameron Heyward (groin) is expected to miss multiple weeks with a groin injury that he suffered in the Week 1 loss to the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday, according to sources. A trip to Injured Reserve is likely and all options are on the table, including surgery. It's a tough start to the 2023 season for the 34-year-old veteran pass-rusher, and fantasy managers in IDP leagues will now have to go in another direction for at least a couple of weeks. Heyward's absence moving forward is a pretty serious blow to Pittsburgh's defense in the coming weeks, starting with a Week 2 matchup against the visiting Cleveland Browns.
