T.J. Watt On Bud Dupree: ‘This Is Going To Be A Really Special Year For Both Of Us’

Last season the Pittsburgh Steelers had both of their starting outside linebackers, T.J. Watt and Bud Dupree, switch primary sides and that move certainly paid off for the former as the Wisconsin product registered 13 total sacks to go along with 3 defensed passes. Oh, and Watt also forced 6 fumbles via his sacks as well.

While Dupree didn’t come close to registering the kind of numbers that Watt posted in 2018, he still managed to record 5.5 sacks, 3 passes defensed and an interception. Now with both players having worked a full season on new sides, Watt hopes he and Dupree can combine to post even better pass rushing numbers in 2019.
