Fullback Derek Watt isn’t new to the NFL, but he is new to the Pittsburgh Steelers after signing a three-year free agent contract with the team back in March. Watt’s newness to the Steelers hasn’t been helped by cancellation of the annual OTAs and minicamp due to the coronavirus pandemic. On Monday, Watt was a guest on SiriusXM NFL Radio, and he was asked how big of impact not having the usual offseason practices will be on him as he tries to settle in with a new team.
“Yeah, no question it’s an impact for sure,” Watt said.
