At some point here in the next few months, Pittsburgh Steelers’ star outside linebacker T.J. Watt will receive a hefty raise from the Rooney family.
That much is guaranteed.
How much he’ll receive is still a question mark, but that doesn’t stop us from having fun discussing what his contract could look like, in terms of number of years, average yearly salary, and the amount of guarantees he’ll receive.
Bleacher Report was the latest outlet to take a shot at projecting Watt’s contract extension details, projecting the All-Pro pass rusher to receive a five-year, $145 million deal with a whopping $105 million in guarantees from the Steelers.
