Perhaps the greatest recognition that any current Pittsburgh Steelers player can receive is from former players. Former Steelers linebacker Chad Brown, who started at middle linebacker in the Steelers’ 1996 Super Bowl against the Dallas Cowboys, went on 93.7 The Fan’s Cook & Joe Show to share his thoughts on Steelers outside linebacker T.J. Watt.
“I see a guy who is an absolute technician at it,” Brown said regarding Watt’s pass-rushing abilities. “You know, the evolution of being a pass rusher has changed quite a bit since I was in the league. You know, there were guys like Kevin Greene who had very set skill sets and kind of became a technician and had a textbook approach to it.
