PITTSBURGH -- Steelers linebacker T.J. Watt's knee injury sustained in the third quarter of Saturday's win against Baltimore Ravens is a "best case scenario," according to brother J.J. Watt.

J.J., who retired after last season, posted an update to his brother's injury on X, formerly Twitter, Sunday morning, saying T.J. has a Grade 2 MCL sprain and "everything else looks pristine." J.J. also added his brother needed a "couple weeks of rest/recovery."

Pittsburgh's defensive MVP candidate appeared to suffer the injury when he landed awkwardly from a jump and collided with teammate Montravius Adams.
