For a month-long stretch, T.J. Watt looked mortal. Held without a sack in his final four games of the regular season and playoffs, Watt finished 2024 with low numbers compared to his lofty standards. Beat writer Ray Fittipaldo outlined how Watt can return to his usual numbers this season.

“[Watt] was talking about was moving around the defense,” Fittipaldo told WMBS’ George Von Benko during a Saturday interview. “Not just playing left outside linebacker. He said he is open to playing on the right side more. He’s always been deferential to Alex Highsmith because that’s where Alex plays, but he said he’s gonna be open to moving to the right side and moving around the defense.
