Pittsburgh Steelers LB T.J. Watt is one of the all-time great defenders to ever played for the organization. He holds the franchise record for sacks at 108 and climbing through eight seasons. He’s led the league in sacks three times. His career-high in sacks was 22.5, and it helped him land the Defensive Player of the Year award.
Watt also has a knack for making big plays in big moments. He has seven interceptions, 33 forced fumbles, and 12 fumble recoveries. He’s a disruptor, whether rushing the passer or dropping into coverage. And NFL.com analyst Bucky Brooks still believes that Watt is number four of the top 10 defenders to build a defense around in the league.
