When compiling a list of the top edge rushers across the NFL landscape, the Steelers star T.J. Watt has to be at, or near the top right? That’s been my thought process for some time now, and back at the NFL Honors this past February, Watt was finally given his due, as he took home the Defensive Player of the Year Award for what should’ve been his second-straight time winning it. In 2020, despite having better stats in virtually every category, Watt came in second to Rams defensive tackle Aaron Donald in what many, myself included, thought was nothing more than a popularity contest, much like the Pro Bowl voting has become.
