Pittsburgh Steelers rookie outside linebacker T.J. Watt’s aggressive play style has been a breath of fresh air for the team and fans alike in 2017. After several years of the Jarvis Jones experiment — about which it could fairly and accurately be said that the biggest problem was a complete lack of aggression — the Steelers selected Watt in the first round of the 2017 NFL Draft. He was a sensation from the start.
Earlier this week, I highlighted a crucial sack by Watt in the closing minutes against the Green Bay Packers that helped secure the Steelers their opportunity to win the game, which they did, with a 53-yard field as time expired.
