The Pittsburgh Steelers have had plenty of all-time great linebackers don the Black and Gold, especially outside linebackers. Jack Ham, Kevin Greene, Greg Lloyd and James Harrison, a teammate of former Steelers DL Casey Hampton, are among the best. Hampton, however, believes T.J. Watt will retire as the best linebacker in team history. He offered praise for Watt during an appearance on Texas Sports Unfiltered earlier this week.
“He’s different, man,” Hampton said. “T.J.’s stayed in one spot and works that one spot, and you know where he’s at and you still can’t stop him. That’s why people talk, this and that man, that dude’s in one spot, you know where he’s at, and you still can’t stop him.
