Chris Carter of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, hosts the Locked on Steelers podcast and is joined by Mark Bergin from the Bleav in Steelers podcast.

The Pittsburgh Steelers are in talks with Cam Heyward about a contract extension. Chris Carter is joined by Mark Bergin and both think that's the right move for Omar Khan. What are the pros and cons, and the potential impact on the Steelers' salary cap?

Also, which defensive lineman on the roster steps up in 2024? Keeanu Benton is an obvious answer, but a former Steelers defensive player thinks that DeMarvin Leal shouldn't be overlooked as well.

Finally, Chris and Mark preview the NFL schedule release and pick which team should be the Steelers' week 1 opponent, and when the biggest games of the year might be against the Chiefs, Chargers, Bengals and Ravens.
