2023 Fantasy Outlook
Heyward tallied double-digit sacks for a second consecutive season last year, topping 70 tackles in three of the last four years. Entering his 13th season, the 34-year-old Heyward has played at least 15 games every season but one. While Father Time will presumably catch up at some point, Heyward has remained productive, especially when offensive lines also have to account for T.J. Watt and Alex Highsmith. Read Past Outlooks

Still dealing with injury
Heyward (groin) did not participate during practice Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Heyward missed six games in a row due to a groin issue before returning for the last two games. However, he was still considered questionable heading into Sunday's 23-19 win against Green Bay, in which he played a season-high 37 defensive snaps. It appears the 34-year-old is still dealing with this groin injury, and he'll now have two more practices to increase his activity level before this Sunday's division matchup against the Browns.

Heyward was a good player in his first six seasons with Pittsburgh, but for some reason a switch
flipped in 2017 and since then he’s been exceptional. After producing 25 sacks his first six
seasons, Heyward has 43 in the last five. Not just that, but twice in the last three years he’s
surpassed 80 tackles. Decline can’t be far off now that he’s 33 years old, but Heyward remains
a justifiable DL1 in most formats.
