T.J. Watt, Montravius Adams’ Pass-Rush Moves Among PFF’s Highest-Graded Ones

At this point in Pittsburgh Steelers’ outside linebacker T.J. Watt’s career, it’s expected that he ranks consistently among the best pass rushers in the NFL, both in terms of grades and production.

What is not expected though is that veteran interior defensive lineman Montravius Adams grades out among the best interior pass rushers from a specific alignment.

According to Pro Football Focus, that’s exactly what occurred in the 2023 season.

That showed up in the grade from Pro Football Focus, particularly when he rushed from the center-right position.

Adams, who played 416 snaps last season for the Steelers, was a solid rotational piece on the interior for the Black and Gold.
