PFF Continues To Place T.J. Watt Just Behind Khalil Mack Atop Edge Defender Rankings

While many Pittsburgh Steelers faithful have real concerns about their team this year, as well as their level of talent, the defense in particular still features a number of blue-chip players who have been able to annually make Pro Bowl and All-Pro lists.

At the top of every list for the team is T.J. Watt, who has been high in the running for the Defensive Player of the Year Award for two consecutive years, after leading the league in sacks in 2020, just the second Steeler to ever do that.

But, once again, he’s not on the top of Pro Football Focus’ list of the top edge defenders.
