It should surprise absolutely no one but Pittsburgh Steelers OLB TJ Watt has been named the AFC’s Week 6’s Defensive Player of the Week. Watt put in his best performance of the season in the team’s overtime victory over Seattle, recording seven total tackles (three for a loss), three pass deflections, two sacks, and a forced fumble that set up kicker Chris Boswell’s game-winning field goal.
