The Steelers' 16-16 tie against the Lions on Sunday at Heinz Field didn't just cost them an opportunity to pull into first place in the AFC North. It also cost them star outside linebacker T.J. Watt -- for what's feared to be next week -- as well.
Watt suffered knee and hip injuries while recording a sack of Detroit quarterback Jared Goff late in the third quarter of the game. According to Mike Tomlin, Watt, who did not return to the game but remain on the sideline, is undergoing additional evaluation.
Watt appeared to bang his knee on that of teammate Joe Schobert on the play and immediately reached for his leg.
