Two members of the Pittsburgh Steelers made the Pro Football Writers of America’s 2021 All-NFL team – TJ Watt and Cam Heyward.
The PFWA released their NFL and conference teams a short time ago with Heyward and Watt making the combined, league-wide list. Of course, those two also made the All-AFC squads as well.
For Watt, it’s his third straight year making this list. He had a historic 2021 season, putting up 22.5 sacks despite missing two full games and chunks of others, tying Michael Strahan’s official mark. He is viewed as the favorite to win the AP’s Defensive Player of the Year Award, one he’s narrowly lost out on each of the past two seasons.
