Contract negotiations between T.J. Watt and the Pittsburgh Steelers may or may not be going well—or going at all. More often than not, they prefer to work out contract extensions later in the offseason, with relatively few exceptions. That doesn’t always work out in their favor, and players aren’t necessarily happy about it.
Last year, even Cameron Heyward, a Steelers captain, sat out some OTAs, unhappy with his contract negotiations. Now Watt is due for his next extension from the Steelers’ front office, so any action goes under the microscope. That includes an image he posted on social media, which some read as a threatening “farewell”.
