Pittsburgh Steelers OLB T.J. Watt is one of the best defensive players in football… arguably the best. His impact on the field was felt back in 2021 when Watt won Defensive Player of the Year honors, tying DE Michael Strahan’s single-season sack record with 22.5 while being a one-man wrecking crew on Pittsburgh’s defense. Watt’s impact was also felt last season when he was off the field nursing a pec injury that caused him to miss a large chunk of the season, with Pittsburgh going 1-6 without him compared to 8-2 with him on the field.
Watt jumped on The Pat McAfee Show Monday to talk about the upcoming season and the state of the Steelers’ offense and defense after a strong preseason.
