TJ Watt’s stance has been clear. He won’t practice in full until he and the Pittsburgh Steelers agree to a long-term deal. So despite the fact Pittsburgh plays its Week 1 opener against Buffalo this Sunday, Watt’s practice status did not change during Monday’s session. That’s according to multiple beat reporters via Steelers’ spokesman Burt Lauten.
T.J. Watt's practice participation did not change today from what it was in training camp.
