Steelers’ T.J. Watt Rated A 96 Overall In Madden ’23

What does a player as supremely talented as T.J. Watt have to do to get a 99 overall in the popular video game Madden?

Coming off of yet another First Team All-Pro selection, another trip to the Pro Bowl, and — most importantly — the NFL’s Defensive Player of the Year award after tying the NFL’s single-season sacks record held by former New York Giants’ star and Hall of Famer Michael Strahan, Watt was left out of the exclusive Madden 99 club, according to an announcement from EA Sports Thursday.

Watt landed a 96 overall rating for the 2022 version of the popular video game, three points below Cleveland Browns’ defensive end Myles Garrett, whom he’s consistently put up better numbers than over the years.
