T.J. Watt has been nothing but excellent throughout his long career with the Pittsburgh Steelers, earning multiple Pro Bowls and All-Pro nods as well as a Defensive Player of the Year award back in 2021. He has been the heart and soul of a defense that has been one of the NFL's best since he was drafted in 2017.
Because of his immense value to the organization, the Steelers rewarded Watt with a three-year, $123 million contract extension this summer, despite his slow finish to the 2024 season. The move made total sense for a team with high expectations, thanks to wild offseason of big trades and high-profile signings.
