? Pittsburgh Tribune-Review: Cameron Heyward got in some good-natured, national television-sized digs Thursday against his little brother and teammate Connor Heyward during an appearance on “Late Night With Seth Meyers.”
While Cam Heyward and Seth Meyers discussed their families getting dinner together, Meyers said about Connor Heyward: “He also seems, I hope this is OK to say, like a trouble maker.”
“I think you put it lightly,” Heyward replied. “Connor is definitely the knucklehead of the group. Him and my mom would battle all throughout high school and they would both call me and I would have to play mediator. To have him now in the locker room, I see what she had to deal with.
“He’s a pipsqueak. Hi, Connor,” Heyward said waving and smiling at the camera.
