SADLY, the Steelers’ coach has just fired two players.

The Pittsburgh Steelers franchise is very familiar with defensive excellence, and Watt is making himself a name to remember in Steelers lore. Thursday was his 100th game with the AFC team, in which time the pass rusher has recorded 91.5 sacks. His accolades include three First-Team All-Pro selections, a Defensive Player of the Year award, and a share of the NFL’s single-season sack record (in only 15 games).

2023 hasn’t seen Watt receive the attention that he normally does. Quietly, TJ Watt has 14.0 sacks, three forced fumbles, three fumble recoveries, an interception, and a touchdown this season. If the Pittsburgh Steelers are going to have a postseason return, they will need him to finish the year. Especially since the offense is only putting up 16.2 points per game.

If this concussion keeps Watt out for even one game, the Steelers may be sitting home earlier than usual again. He’s that important.Follow me on Twitter at @TowerTalkSports You can also reach out to Andre Ifill via email at andre.ifill.jr@gmail.com.
