DT Cameron Heyward (6x Pro Bowl, 3x All Pro, Pittsburgh Steelers)

For Ironhead
AUG 11 2016
CAMERON HEYWARD
DEFENSIVE END / PITTSBURGH STEELERS


Ten years ago, my dad died from brain cancer.

He was a lovable, happy-go-lucky, hilarious human being — a little kid trapped in a big man’s body. Everyone called him “Ironhead.”

I’ll let you in on how he got that nickname later — the real scoop, from our family, not the fake story I’ve seen on Wikipedia — but first I’d like to share a few stories with you.

They won’t be sad stories or emergency room tales. That’s not what this is about.

You see, I miss my dad every day, and it’s a fact that after he passed away I was in a funk for a long time. But it’s also a fact that when your dad is Ironhead Heyward, you kind of owe it to the big fella to not stay miserable forever and to let the entire world know what a funny, engaging guy he was.

So that’s what this is about.

Before I really even get started here, though, something I mentioned above bears repeating: Everyone called my dad Ironhead.
