Cameron Heyward wants clarity around his future, so he’s not participating in the offseason program.

Cameron Heyward is entering his 14th season and, for the first time, will not participate in the Steelers’ voluntary offseason program. The defensive tackle confirmed on his “Not Just Football” podcast that he is sitting out as he seeks a contract extension.

“I’ve always participated. But it’s about the contract negotiations now. I want to be a Pittsburgh Steeler, but we’ll see what happens,” Heyward said. “I’m practicing hard. It’s nothing I don’t do on and off the field. I’m doing everything possible.”

The 35-year-old Heyward is entering the final year of his contract and is scheduled to make $16 million in base salary. The reigning Walter Payton Man of the Year has 647 tackles, 80.5 sacks and 179 quarterback hits in his career.
