T.J. Watt named AFC Defensive Player of the Month for November

Everyone can use a Watt.

That was something Mike Tomlin said when the Pittsburgh Steelers drafted T.J. Watt with their first pick in the 2017 NFL Draft. The Wisconsin product has proven he isn’t just the youngest in a line of NFL brothers, but is proving he earns every bit of respect his brother J.J. Watt and Derek Watt receive.

As if he needed more individual honors, Watt was recently named AFC Defensive Player of the Month for the month of November.

During the month, Watt had 18 tackles, including 13 solo stops, five and a half sacks, 17 quarterback hits, and three pass defenses.
