Heyward clarifies comments on Rodgers joining Steelers

Pittsburgh Steelers defensive lineman Cameron Heyward clarified his earlier comments regarding the potential recruitment of quarterback Aaron Rodgers, stating that his words were 'misconstrued.' Initially, Heyward expressed reluctance to participate in unconventional recruitment methods, emphasizing that if Rodgers wants to be a Steelers player, he should simply join the team. He acknowledged that while it would be exciting to have a player of Rodgers' caliber, the ultimate decision rests with the quarterback himself. Following Rodgers' visit to the Steelers facility, the team remains one of the few left showing interest, especially after other suitors have moved on. Heyward reiterated the focus on winning, stating the Steelers prioritize hard work and competition without the distractions of glitz associated with other teams. As the quarterback's future remains uncertain, the Steelers are hopeful for a positive outcome.
