Cam Heyward pode igualar recorde de Valor Aproximado dos Steelers

O jogador de linha defensiva dos Pittsburgh Steelers, Cam Heyward, tem a chance de liderar a equipe em Valor Aproximado por três temporadas consecutivas em 2026. Ele já superou a franquia na métrica durante as campanhas de 2024 e 2025.

Heyward registrou um Valor Aproximado de 16 em 2024, à frente do edge rusher T.J. Watt com 14 e do inside linebacker Patrick Queen com 10. Sua marca de 13 em 2025 liderou novamente os Steelers, ficando logo à frente do quarterback Aaron Rodgers com 12.

Apenas dois jogadores na história da franquia lideraram a equipe em Valor Aproximado por três temporadas consecutivas. O offensive guard Alan Faneca alcançou o feito entre as campanhas de 2005 e 2007, enquanto o defensive tackle Joe Greene conseguiu o mesmo de 1972 a 1974.

Heyward, agora no final dos seus 30 anos, registrou 3,5 sacks na última temporada enquanto conquistou honras de second-team All-Pro. A métrica, criada pelo fundador do Pro Football Reference, Doug Drinen, atribui um único número ao valor sazonal de um jogador em qualquer posição.
