PITTSBURGH -- Steelers star pass rusher T.J. Watt is out of concussion protocol and available to play in a crucial matchup at Indianapolis on Saturday.
Watt was cleared by an independent neurologist, team spokesman Burt Lauten announced Wednesday night. He entered the protocol Friday morning after reporting concussion symptoms at the Steelers' practice facility, one day after the team's 21-18 loss to the New England Patriots on Thursday night.
Watt was a limited participant in Tuesday's practice before being a full participant on Wednesday. Fellow pass rusher Alex Highsmith remains in the concussion protocol and was a limited participant in each of the Steelers' two practices this week.
