T.J. Watt’s contract extension is grabbing all the headlines this offseason as his holdout drags beyond mandatory minicamp. But after his deal is done, the Pittsburgh Steelers could be in the clear with large contracts for quite a while.
Minkah Fitzpatrick is the biggest question mark next offseason, but his recent production doesn’t scream a large contract, and the safety market is depressed overall.
Steelers insider Mark Kaboly thinks Fitzpatrick is more likely to be looking for work next offseason than he is to get another top-of-market deal like Watt is due sometime in the coming months.
