‘We’re So Close’: T.J. Watt Reveals What His Pitch Is In Free Agency

Entering his eighth season in the NFL, Pittsburgh Steelers’ star outside linebacker T.J. Watt has a sense of urgency to win, and win now.

It’s well documented how frustrated he is with the lack of a playoff win in his career, and knows that time is running short on his career as he pushes 30 years old.

As that star of the Steelers and arguably the face of the franchise, he has a unique opportunity when it comes to making a pitch to outside free agents. That’s something he did this offseason to quarterback Russell Wilson, who said Watt told him to come help the Steelers win, period.
