On Thursday, the Pittsburgh Steelers finally put an end to months of speculation and sealed the deal with their defensive anchor, T.J. Watt. The three-year, $123 million extension makes him the highest-paid non-quarterback in the NFL, and honestly, it's worth every penny.
The waiting is over—and what a sigh of relief it is.
Watt has been the heart and soul of this defense since 2017, and locking him in for another three years is a massive win for Pittsburgh.
But while fans are thrilled to keep No. 90 in the black and gold, there’s another reason this move is exciting—rookie Jack Sawyer.
