The Pittsburgh Steelers will enter the Wild Card Round of the AFC playoffs without team MVP T.J. Watt. He was injured in Week 18 as DT Montravius Adams leaped into the air to try to clog up the passing lane and landed awkwardly on Watt’s leg. It was the best-case scenario for Watt with just a Grade 2 MCL sprain, but the Steelers will need to win a game or two in the playoffs to see him again this season. The main player who will fill in for Watt Sunday in Buffalo is veteran OLB Markus Golden.
