Chapter 6: How does Heath feel about the camaraderie in the locker room?
I miss being around, you know, like we talked about, you're around your teammates way more than your family. And, um, You know, you become close to everybody. We kind of all go through at that age and stage in life. Everybody goes through, you know, kind of monumental moments in your life, whether it be getting married, having kids, starting a family, like all these things we go through together.
And then, you know, kind of when you're retired, everybody goes their separate ways and you don't get to talk to each other or see each other as often as, as you do. So I miss, I miss going to the weight room and seeing Debo every morning and, you know, you know, being in the locker room and playing, whatever, just hanging out, just being around the guy. That's what I miss the most. Yep.
That's the same, same thing. I think that's the answer for most of the guys. Cause you don't get that. You get 60, 70 grown men that are willing to be there on time in the same place, working to the same goal, trying to be the best that they can be. And there's nowhere else in the world that you can go find that.
Chapter 7: What advice does Heath give to young tight ends?
So that's, that's the normal answer that we get. So when you say that, I'm like this, yes, it's, it's the locker room. It's a special place. Cause it's, and all those guys have been through probably the same thing to get to where they are shared experiences. Same goals. We're all the same people. Yeah. Essentially at the end of the day, the core of who we are is the same for the most part.
And that's what, that's what builds the bonds. But yeah, when I walked in the last day to, to, to meet the coaches and retire, you know, to let them know the news. First person I see when I go through the door, Debo. And D'Angelo. Yeah. He said, what are you doing here? So what are you doing here? They knew, they knew, Deebo, you knew it was coming?
Bro, he talking about he retiring, like, for what? We like, for what? What are you talking about? Where are you going?
Chapter 8: What are Heath's reflections on the Steelers' future and quarterback situation?
What? I'm coming, what? I done came back to this. What is you talking about, bro? You leaving? Was it like a body, was it a body situation, Heath, you think? Were you just kind of ready, ready to go? It was a little bit of everything. I knew it was time, uh, Maybe it was a pride thing because I knew I couldn't play the way I wanted to or expect it out of myself.
I knew I could still be productive and I knew I still had a role on the team, but... I felt like if I couldn't ā I was putting in ā as you get older, you know, you put in more and more work off the field to be your best on the field. I felt like that tradeoff wasn't matching up anymore.
You know, I was putting in more and more work, and I wasn't still as good as I had hoped to be or feel as good as I hoped to feel on Sunday.
Yeah.
Um, I knew, I knew it was time. I don't have the, you know, first year out was probably tough, but, um, some, you know, some second thoughts, especially when the first game, I think the Steelers played on Monday night football versus the Redskins, I believe. So I'm excited. I'm like, I'm going to watch the game.
I turn it on and like five or 10 minutes into the game, I'm like, I can't watch this. I can't watch it. I didn't watch any more games the rest of that year. I'm like, this is just too weird.
Too soon. Way too soon. Yeah.
I'm like, I'm supposed to be in the huddle. Like this is, I'm looking at all my guys in the huddle and I'm like, it looks like I know what plays they're running, everything. I got to take a step back. So, but it's all good now. You can watch the games now. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I can watch the games now. You been watching? When I can, yeah. With our kids.
Look at that big, giant-ass tight end they got, bro. Mount Washington. That boy like seven foot, 500 pounds. I saw him a few years ago and we all got a big before game. We went out, had a I took a I took a picture with all the tight ends. And then I see the picture after the fact. And he's like two feet taller. I should have moved a little bit further away from this dude. He's a giant. Oh, yes.
