Pittsburgh Steelers defensive tackle Cam Heyward has a special gift coming his way from actor Robert Downey Jr.
Heyward shared a video message from Downey in which the "Iron Man" star called on the 8-0 Steelers to beat the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday and promised to send him an Infinity Gauntlet replica.
"I believe that 'Ironhead' is gonna need an iron hand," Downey says in the video, referencing Heyward's father, former NFL fullback Craig "Ironhead" Heyward. "So this is coming your way, brother. Thank you, love you, go Steelers, numero uno for-frickin'-ever."
Downy was born in New York City, but his mother hails from Pennsylvania, which may explain his Steelers fandom.
